Story time:Snip Snap whats that?By Mara Bergman

5 little monkey finger play.I printed out some monkeys from PreKinders.com I am going to use these monkeys again for the number 5.

Snap that monkey right out of the tree

Mr. Alligator
Five little monkeys swinging in a tree,
Teasing Mr. Alligator, "Hey, you can't catch me."
But along came Mr. Alligator quiet as can be
He snapped a monkey right out of that tree!
(Next verses: 4 little monkeys, 3 little.......,2, 1...)
The last verse for 0:
No little monkeys swinging in a tree
'Cause Mr. Alligator caught them all, you see.
All alone is Mr. Alligator, quiet as can be
With only the wind blowing that tree.
(Blow like the wind)

Have them be the alligator and snap the monkeys right out of the tree.
