October Literature and Chants
The following are some fun poems, stories, and songs for October.
Five Little Pumpkins Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate. The first one said, "Oh, my, it's getting late! The second one said, "There are witches in the air!" The third one said, "But I don't care!" The fourth one said, "Let's run and run and run." The fifth one said, "I'm ready for some fun!" WOO-ooh! went the wind and out went the lights. And five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!
The Floppy Scarecrow The floppy, floppy scarecrow Guards his fields all day, He waves his floppy, floppy hands To scare the crows away! (repeat the
poem and replace hands with arms, toes
Three Little Witches (use fingers for numbers) One little, Two little, Three little witches, Fly over haystacks, fly over ditches, Sliding down moonbeams without any hitches, Hi Ho Halloween's here!
I Made a Jack-O-Lantern I made a jack-o-lantern for Halloween night (form circle) He has 3 crooked teeth, but he won't bite! (point to teeth and shake head) He has 2 round eyes but cannot see (circle eyes) He's a jolly jack-o-lantern as happy as can be!
Ten Little Pumpkins (tune of "Ten Little Indians) One little, two little, three little pumpkins Four little, five little, six little pumpkins Seven little, eight little, nine little pumpkins Ten little pumpkins in the pumpkin patch!
