FIVE COYOTES FINGERPLAY

(You can simply hold up fingers for coyotes, 
or cut out 5 felt coyotes and use on a flannel board)

FIVE COYOTES UP ON THE
 HILL, JUST A SITTIN’ AND A’HOWLIN’ AT THE MOON

(stretch neck and howl)
ONE COYOTE SAID, "I’M GETTIN’ KINDA HUNGRY,
 I’M OFF TO FIND SOME RABBIT STEW!"


 repeat with FOUR, THREE, TWO and ONE.

Last verse:
THEN DOWN IN THE VALLEY  FIVE LITTLE RABBITS 
(hold up 5 fingers)

HOP INTO A HOLE IN THE GROUND
(hands together and dive into hole)

THEY SAID, "WE HEAR THE COYOTES ARE GETTIN’ KINDA HUNGRY,"  
(put hand to ear as if listening)
"AND WE DON’T PLAN TO BE AROUND"
(wag finger and nod head).
