Peas in a Pot

(used a play pot and green pompoms)

1 little pea jumped into the pot and waited for the soup to get hot

2 little peas jumped into the pot and waited for the soup to get hot

...

5 little peas jumped into the pot and waited for the soup to get hot

Soon the soup got very, very hot and 5 little peas jumped out of the pot!
