Rhymes/Fingerplays/Songs:
Five Little Ducks:
Five little ducks went out one day,
Over the hills and far away,
Mother duck said, "Quack, quack, quack."
But only four little ducks came back.
Count down to none.
Sad mother duck went out one day,
Over the hills and far away,
Mother duck said, "Quack, quack, quack!"
And all five little ducks came back.

Chickens in the Barnyard:
Down by the barnyard on a big straw bed,
Stood a little hen that was colored red.
Down by the barnyard, eating a snack,
Stood a little hen that was colored black.
Down by the barnyard by the farmer's well,
Stood a little hen that was colored yellow.
Down by the barnyard by the wagon for town,
Stood a little hen that was colored brown.
Down by the barnyard, near the farmer's shoes,
Stood a little hen that was colored blue.
Down by the barnyard, pecking at some beans,
Stood a little hen that was colored green.
Source: Half of the rhyme was from my flannel drawer. The other half I created based on what colored hens we had.
Little Chick (hiding game):
Little chick, little chick, come out to play!
What color barn are you in today?
Source: One of my fabulous LA's! She made different colored barns for the little chick to hide behind. A spin-off of the little mouse in the house hiding game.
Two Little Blackbirds:
Two little blackbirds sitting on a hill,
One named Jack and the other named Jill.
Fly away Jack, Fly away Jill.
Come back Jack, Come back Jill.
Two little blackbirds sitting on a hill,
One named Jack and the other named Jill.
