FINGER PLAYS (FORM) (Rhymes, poems) TITLE ______________________________________________________________ SOURCE ______________________________________PAGE # _______________ MAJOR THEME (animals, weather, number, etc) _____________________________ APPROPRIATE AGE __________________________________________________ In the space below, write the words and actions (finger motions/whole body) for the Finger Play: Ten Little Leaf Buds Ten little leaf buds growing on a tree (fingers are buds) Curled up as tightly as can be (curl fingers up into fists) See them keeping snug and warm, During the winters cold and storm. (snuggle fist under fist) Now along comes windy March, With his breath now soft, now harsh. First he swings them roughly so (swing fists back and forth) Then more gently to and fro (swing tenderly) 'Til the raindrops from the skies (stretch arms high, bring down to floor, tapping fingers as rain) Falling pitter, patter-wise (repeat previous action) Open wide the leaf bud's eyes.
