Way Up High in the Apple Tree Felt Board Poem

When I was program planning for preschool, I often chose an Apple Theme for late September and early October. This is one of my favourites...

Way up high in an apple tree

Five little apples were looking at me

I shook that tree as hard as I could

And down came an apple, mmm mmm, it was good!

Easy Felt Board Story

This felt story is so easy to make and I sing the lyrics from the tune, Current Buns from the Bakery Shop. This one is about doughnuts! It is fun to sing with a group of children, and to give each child a coin to pay for his/her chosen doughnut.

Five yummy doughnuts in the bakery shop
Round and sugary with icing on the top
Along came (child's name) with some money one day
He bought a yummy doughnut and he ate it right away!


A Healthy Version:

Five Yummy Apples in the Grocery Shop
Round and yummy with a stem on the top
Along came (child's name) with some money one day
He bought a yummy apple and he ate it right away!
