Way up High in the Bat Tree

Sung to "Way up high in the apple tree"

Way up high in the bat tree (point up)
Two little bats smiled down at me (smile)
I shook that tree as hard as I could (pretend to shake tree)
Down swooped the bats (make swooping action with hands)
and I ran away as fast as I could! (slap thighs quickly or stomp feet)

Bats are Sleeping

To the tune of "Frere Jacques"

Bats are sleeping, Bats are sleeping
Upside down, upside down
Waiting for the night
Waiting for the night
Then fly around, Then fly around

Five Little Pumpkins

Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate.
The first one said, "Oh my it's getting late."
The second one said, "There are leaves in the air."
The third one said, "But we don't care!"
The fourth one said, "Let's run and run and run."
The fifth one said, "We are ready for some fun!"
Then OOOhh OOOhh went the wind
And out went the lights
And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight.

I Saw a Ghost

I saw a ghost (fingers circle eyes)
He saw me too (point to yourself)
I waved at him (wave your hand)
But he said, "BOO!"

Monster Monster, Turn Around!

Monster, Monster, Touch the ground!

Monster, Monster, Reach up high!

Monster, Monster, Squint your eyes!

Monster, Monster, Show your teeth!

Monster, Monster, Stomp your feet!

Monster, Monster, Slap your knees!

Monster, Monster, Sit down, please!

Once upon a time, there was a little old lady who was not afraid of anything! But one autumn night, while walking in the woods, the little old lady heard . . . clomp, clomp, shake, shake, clap, clap. And the little old lady who was not afraid of anything had the scare of her life!
