Fall Fun

Here are some songs and rhymes for fall. Sing them all as you flutter your hands like leaves.

Falling Leaves - Sing to the tune of Row, Row, Row Your Boat:

Leaves, leaves, falling down, 

Falling to the ground.

Red and yellow, orange and brown,

Falling to the ground.

Down By The Oak Tree - sung to "Down By The Station"

Down by the oak tree
On an autumn morning,
See all the yellow leaves
Whirling to and fro.
See how they twist and turn,
Whirling, whirling, whirling.
Down, down, down, down,
Off they blow.

Each time you sing it change the color. Ask the children what other color the leaves could be (red, orange, brown, etc.)

Leaves are Falling All Around

Leaves are falling all around,

On the housetops on the ground.

Leaves are falling on my nose,

On my head and hands and toes.

The song is actually called Rain is Falling All Around.  You can find the tune for this song here:
