THANKSGIVING SONG: FIVE LITTLE
PILGRIMS
Preschoolers will enjoy this Thanksgiving song with motions,
sung to the tune of "Five Little Ducks." Another option is to use
this as a finger play without the tune.
Five little pilgrims sailing in a boat (hold up five
fingers),
Over the sea and water they float (make wave motions with
hands).
One little pilgrim said, "Land I see!" (hold up one finger, then
hold other hand above eyes as if searching).
They came to America to be free (fold hands and bow head as if to
pray).
Continue to repeat this song, subtracting the number of pilgrims
as you go until there are no pilgrims left.
