Five Little Speckled Frogs

Five little speckled frogs
Sitting on a speckled log
Eating some most delicious bugs, Yum! Yum!
One jumped into the pool
Where it was nice and cool
Then there were four speckled frogs,
Ribbit Ribbit!
Keep counting down until there are no more speckled frogs.

We sing a lot around here and lately Little Man wants to hear this one. So I decided to make him a craft for it. I traced five frogs onto a piece of paper and let Little Man color it.

While he was doing that I found a piece of light blue construction paper and cut part of the top off, this is for the frogs to sit in at the bottom to make it look like they "jumped" into the water, so you want to make it like a little pocket.. You glue the very bottom and the edges on to the bottom of the blue construction paper. and make sure your frogs will fit into it. (Ours didn't fit so we made two and put them together)


Then you cut a piece of brown paper to go across the middle of the blue page. We didn't have brown so we just colored brown on white paper. Then you glue it just like you did the blue at the bottom, Edges and very bottom. Once you are done you can sit your frogs in and sing away!!

We drew "bugs" for our frogs to eat (everyone thought they were birds though lol!)

This only one page, there are two other frogs on the page next to it.
