ALL THE LEAVES ARE FALLING DOWN
Tune: “London Bridges Falling Down”
All the leaves are falling down, falling down, falling down (Imitate leaves falling down)
All the leaves are falling down, it is fall.
Take the rake and rake them up, rake them up, rake them up (Imitate raking leaves)
Take the rake and rake them up, it is fall.
Make a pile and jump right in, jump right in, jump right in, (Children jump forward)
Make a pile and jump right in, it is fall.

FIVE LITTLE LEAVES
Five little leaves so bright and gay (Hold up five fingers)
Were dancing about on a tree one day. (Wiggle fingers on one hand)
The wind came blowing through the town. (Cup hand around mouth and make wind noises)
Ooooooooo……………Ooooooooooooooo………
One little leaf came tumbling down. (Bend down one finger)
Four little leaves so bright and gay, (Hold up four fingers)
Were dancing about on a tree one day. (Wiggle four fingers)
The wind came blowing through the town, (Cup hand around mouth and make wind noises)
Oooooooo…………….Oooooooooooo……………….
One little leaf came tumbling down (Bend down another finger)
Three little leaves so bright and gay……………………etc.
Two little leaves so bright and gay………………………etc.
One little leaf so bright and gay…………………………..etc.

THE LEAVES ON THE TREES
Tune: “The Wheels On The Bus”
The Leaves on the trees are yellow and brown,
Yellow and brown, yellow and brown.
The leaves on the trees are yellow and brown,
All through the town.
The leaves on the trees are falling down,
Falling down, falling down.
The leaves on the trees are falling down,
All through the town.
The leaves on the trees make a crunching sound,
Crunching sound, crunching sound.
The leaves on the trees make a crunching sound
All through the town.
Let’s rake all the leaves into a mound,
Into a mound, into a mound.
Let’s rake all the leaves into a mound
All through the town.
The children in the town jump up and down,
Up and down, up and down.
The children in the town jump up and down
On the leaves on the ground.

THE SKY IS FALLING
The sky is falling down upon my head.
The sky is falling yellow, brown and red.
The sky will soon cover every bit of ground
Making a quilt of yellow, red and brown.

THE LEAVES ARE FALLING
The leaves are falling,
The leaves are falling,
Watch them twirl around.
The leaves are falling,
The leaves are falling,
Gently to the ground.

ONE, TWO LEAVES FELL DOWN
One, two leaves fell down.
Three, four they hit the ground.
Five, six they fell so quick.
Seven, eight they lay so straight.
Nine, ten, let’s start again!

(Give your children some paper (or real leaves) to drop as you all say the rhyme. Repeat with more leaves if your children would like.) |
SAW A LEAF
Tune: “My Darling Clementine”
Saw a leaf,
Saw a leaf,
Saw a leaf falling down.
It was floating,
It was twirling,
As it spun and spun around.
Tried to catch it,
Tried to catch it
When it landed on the ground.
But it kept right on twirling
As it danced across the town.
