Round and round the beaters go, (make circular motion)
Add some flour from a cup, stir and stir the batter up (pour and stir)
Roll them, and cut them, nice and neat. Put them on a cookie sheet (make rolling motion)
Bake them and count them, 1 2 3 and serve them to your friends for tea! (pretend to take a bite)

I'm a little gingerbread girl, (girls bow)

And I can twirl. (all turn around)
I have raisins for my eyes (point to eyes)
And bright red buttons (point to chest)
Just this size.
I have a mouth that looks like this (point to mouth)
I can even blow a kiss. (blow kiss)
I'm warm and tasty, but don't eat me!
Hang me on your Christmas tree! (make hands into tree shape above your head)

If you like cookies and you know it
If you like cookies and you know it clap your hands. (clap hands)
If you like cookies and you know it clap your hands.
If you like cookies and you know it, and you really want to show it,
If you like cookies and you know it clap your hands.

If you like cookies and you know it stomp your feet. (stomp feet)

Five Little Gingerbread Men (from Step by Step Childcare)
Five little gingerbread men in a row.
Not gonna eat one, no, no, no. (shake finger side to side)
But they look so sweet, from head to toe. (touch head, then toes)
Crunch, munch! (slap thighs on crunch, clap hands on munch)
UH OH! (put hands over mouth)

Four little gingerbread men in a row.
Not gonna eat one,no, no, no.
But they look so sweet, from head to toe.
Crunch, munch!
UH OH!

Count down till all gingerbread men are gone.

No little gingerbread men in a row.
Wasn't gonna eat one, no, no, no.
But they looked so sweet, it's sad to tell.
Crunch, munch, Oh well! (shrug shoulders)

Literacy tip of the week: Reading counting books, such as Cookie Count by Robert Sabuda, is a great way to work on math and literacy skills at the same time.

Craft: We decorated paper cookies with chocolate chips :)
