​Scarecrow, scarecrow, turn around,
Scarecrow, scarecrow, jump up and down.
Scarecrow, scarecrow, arms up high -
Scarecrow, scarecrow, wink one eye.
Scarecrow, scarecrow, bend your knee,
Scarecrow, scarecrow, flap in the breeze.
Scarecrow, scarecrow, climb into bed -
Scarecrow, scarecrow, rest your head.


When all the cows were sleeping,
And the sun had gone to bed,
Up jumped the scarecrow,
And this is what he said,
"I'm a Dingle Dangle Scarecrow,
With a flippy, floppy hat,
I can shake my hands like this,
And I can shake my feet like that!"


I'm a little scarecrow stuffed with hay.
Here I stand in a field all day.
When I see the crows,
I like to shout
"Hey! You crows, you better get out!"


​Tune: "The Grand Old Duke of York."
Oh, the frisky little squirrel
He gathers nuts and seeds.
He hides them for the winter months
So he'll have all he needs.
Oh up, up, up he goes -
And down, down, down he comes.
He runs around - goes up and down.
His work is never done.


These are brown leaves, fluttering down,
And this is the tall tree bare and brown;
This is the squirrel with eyes so bright
Hunting for nuts, with all of her might
This is the hole where, day by day,
Nut after nut she stores away
When winter comes, with its cold and storm -
She'll rest curled up,
All snug and warm. 


I'm an acorn, small and round,
Lying on the cold, cold ground.
People pass and step on me,
That's why I'm all cracked, you see.
I'm a nut, (clap, clap)
I'm a nut (clap, clap)
I'm a nut, I’m a nut, I’m a nut! (clap, clap)


I looked out my window and what did I find?
Green leaves a-growing on my pumpkin vine.
Gree-een leaves, gree-een leaves,
Green leaves a-growing on my pumpkin vine.
...yellow flowers growing
...black bugs crawling
...pumpkins growing



Pumpkin, pumpkin on the ground (crouch down)
How'd you get so big and round? (make a circle with arms)
Once you were a seed so small,(pretend to hold a seed)
Now you are a great big ball! (make a circle with hands)
Pumpkin, pumpkin on the ground (crouch down)
How'd you get so big and round?(make a circle with arms)


Here is the apple tree with leaves so green,
Here are the apples that hang in between,
When the wind blows,
The apples will fall,
Let's use a basket to gather them all!


Tune: Oh Christmas Tree
Oh, fall is here, yes fall is here,
And wintertime is coming.
The squirrels get ready, yes they do -
They gather nuts to get them through
The wintertime, cold wintertime,
It’s fall and winter’s coming.
 
The ducks get ready, yes they do -
They migrate south to get them through.
 
The bears get ready, yes they do -
They look for dens to get them through


When the leaves are on the ground,
Instead of on the trees -
I like to make a pile of them
Way up to my knees!
I like to run and jump in them,
And kick them all around,
I like the prickly feel of them -
And the crickly, crackly sound.


All the leaves are falling down 
Orange, green, red, and brown. 
If you listen, you'll hear them say, 
(Whisper)"Wintertime is on it's way." 



Maple leaves tumbling, 
Falling through the air
Falling in the front (school) yard.
Falling everywhere.
I think that I could catch one 
Before it blows away - 
If I catch a maple leaf,
I can make a wish today!


Hello Fall, I see you're here,
It happens this time every year.
The days grow shorter, where is the sun?
The leaves are falling on by one.
The mornings are cooler, I need a sweater,
What happened to that warm sunny weather?
But its OK Fall, I like you, too.
There's lots of things that we can do.
(Talk about Fall activities: jump in, throw leaves; collect leaves and sort by shape and color; chase squirrels; count acorns and pine cones; splash in puddles; blow steam from your mouth etc


Tune: Itsy Bitsy
Once a little apple seed
Was planted in the ground.
Down came the raindrops,
Falling all around.
Out came the bright sun,
As bright as bright could be -
And the tiny little apple seed
Grew up to be a tall apple tree.


Tune: The Farmer in the Dell. Give each child a mini pumpkin for this one.
The pumpkins are here, the pumpkins are there.
The pumpkins, the pumpkins are everywhere.
The pumpkins are up, the pumpkins are down.
The pumpkins, the pumpkins are all around.
The pumpkins are in, the pumpkins are out.
The pumpkins, the pumpkins are all about.
The pumpkins are low, the pumpkins are high.
The pumpkins, the pumpkins they all say good-bye!


Tune: Ring Around the Rosie
Ring around the trees
See the full of leaves
Catch them, catch them,
We all fall down!

Let's jump in the leaves
Let's kick all the leaves,
Let's roll in the leaves,
We all stand up!


The first squirrel said, "I want to play."
The second squirrel said, "Let's find nuts today."
The third squirrel said, "Yes, nuts are good."
The fourth squirrel said, "They're my favorite food."
The fifth squirrel said, "Let's climb this tree 
And crack our nuts - one, two, three."
