1. It’s autumntime. It’s autumntime.
The leaves are falling down.
It’s autumntime. It’s autumntime.
It’s all around the town.
The leaves are falling down.
It’s autumntime. It’s autumntime.
It’s all around the town.
2. It’s autumntime. It’s autumntime.
There’s yellow, red, and brown.
It’s autumntime. It’s autumntime.
Bright colors can be found.

Kayson's "Monsters."
It's autumn time, it's autumn time ... sway side to side above head
the leaves are falling down ... slowly lower leaf as if falling
It's autumn time, it's autumn time .... sway side to side above head
It's all around the town ... circle leaf above your head
It's autumn time .... sway side to side above head
yellow, red, brown ... raise leaf when color is said
It's autumn time .... sway side to side above head
colors can be found ... shake leaf above head
Five Little Pumpkins (review)
Five Little Pumpkins
(Tune: “Five Little Ducks”)
(Tune: “Five Little Ducks”)
Five little pumpkins sitting on the gate. (Hold up 5 fingers.)
The first one said, “Oh, my it’s getting late.” (Hold up thumb.)
The second one said, “There are witches in the air.” (Hold up index finger.)
The third one said, “But I don’t care.” (Hold up middle finger.)
The fourth one said, “Let’s run and run and run.” (Hold up ring finger.)
The fifth one said, “I’m ready for some fun.” (Hold up pinky.)
Ooooo! Went the wind, and out went the light. (Blow through hands, then clap.)
And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight! (Roll hands behind back.)
