Aloud:
Ten Little Fingers
I have ten little
fingers
And they all belong to
me
I can make them do
things, would you like to see?
I can shut them up
tight.
I can open them up
wide.
I can put them
together
And I can make them
all hide.
I can put them up high
I can put them down
low
I can fold them
together
And hold them just so
{Give your child’s
hand’s a kiss
and tell them you love
them}
