\nThere was a little bear whose name was Sue. Another came along, and then there were two!
\nTwo little bears quickly climbed a tree to find another bear, and then there were three!
\nThree little bears were fishing from the shore. Then they met another, and now there were four!
\nFour little bears found a busy beehive. Another came along, and then there were five!
\nFive little bears eating honey in the sun. Out came the bees… Bzzzzzzzzzzz!… And the there were none!<\/p>\n
\nHere is a beehive
\n(Make a fist.)
\nWhere are the bees?
\nHidden away where nobody sees.
\nWatch as they come out of their hive\u2014
\nOne, two, three, four, five,
\n(Extend fingers one at a time.)
\nThey\u2019re alive! Buzzzzzz!
\n(Wiggle your fingers.)<\/p>\n
\n(Tune: \u201cMary Had a Little Lamb\u201d)
\nAutumn leaves are falling down, (Flutter fingers down)
\nFalling down, falling down.
\nAutumn leaves are falling down,
\nFalling on the ground.<\/p>\n
\nWhirling round, whirling round.
\nAutumn leaves are whirling round,
\nAll over town.<\/p>\n
\nMy hands say thank you
\nWith a clap, clap, clap
\nClap hands
\nMy feet say thank you with a tap,
\nTap feet
\nClap, clap, clap.
\nTap, tap, tap.
\nClap hands, then tap feet
\nTurn myself around and bow,
\nThank you!
\nTurn around, bow, then smile<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
