Song

(tune: If you're happy and you know it)

There's a snowflake on my head, on my head
There's a snowflake on my head, on my head
I caught this little flake, now give a little shake
There's a snowflake on my head, on my head.

Additional verses: (keeping line 3 the same)
Any body part
Face
Tummy
Back
Toe

Flannel Board

One little snowflake with nothing to do
Along came another and then there were two.

Two little snowflakes flying past me
Along came another and then there were three.

Three little snowflakes looking for some more
Along cam another and then there were four.

Four little snowflakes dancing a jive
Along came another and then there were five.

Five little snowflakes having so much fun
Out came the sun and then there were none!
