SONGS
Mr. Oak Tree
(sung to the tune of"Where Is Thumbkin?")

Mr. Oak Tree,
(Hold your arms above your head and sway.)
Mr. Oak Tree,
Leaves float down,
(Extend hands over head and flutter down.)
To the ground.
Acorns dropping—plip, plop!
(Clap once when each italicized word is sung.)
Squirrels a-scamp'ring—hip, hop!
All around,
(Move hands in front of yourself from left to right.)

On the ground.
