I am making cookie dough.                (hold out arms in a circle, like a bowl)
Round and round the beaters go.      (roll hands)
Add some flour from a cup.               (shake a pretend cup)
Stir and stir the batter up.                  (stirring motion)
Roll them, cut them nice and neat.    (rolling pin motion)
Put them on a cookie sheet.             (place pretend cookies)
Bake them, count them 1-2-3.          (counting motion)
Serve them to my friends for tea.     (take a bite!)

5 Sugar cookies sitting on a tray,

5 Sugar cookies shaped this way.                                    

Along came _____ with a gleam in her eye,                   

Kiss that sugar cookie goodbye.

5 Yummy cookies

All chocolate chip,

Were sitting in the cookie jar,

When the table tipped!

The cookie jar tumbled,

1 cookie crumbled.

How many cookie are left?

FINGERTALES

 

Stir a bowl of gingerbread, smooth and spicy brown.

Roll it with a rolling pin, up and up and down.

With a cookie cutter, make some little men,

Put them in the oven, until half-past ten.

 

A baker took some gingerbread dough,

And shaped a man from head to toe.

When it was baked the cookie fled,

And this is what the cookie said:

"Run! Run! As fast as you can,

"You can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man."

"Run! Run! As fast as you can,

"You can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man."

          --County of LA Library--Storytime

 

(sing to: “Jingle Bells”)

Watch me run, watch me run,

All around the room.

I’m the little Gingerbread kid

See me zoom, zoom, zoom.

Running here, running there,

Running fast and slow.

I’m the little Gingerbread kid

See how I can go!

            --Elizabeth Scafield/PRESCHOOL EXPRESS

 

Gingerbread cookies, yum, yum, yum,

I think that I will bake some.

Gingerbread cookies, one, two, three,

One for you, and two for me!

            --Jean Warren/PRESCHOOL EXPRESS

 

Five little gingerbread men lying on a tray,
One jumped up and ran away.
Shouting "Catch me, catch me, catch me if you can ...
I run really fast, I'm a gingerbread man!"
Four little gingerbread men lying on a tray,
4-3-2-1 
No more gingerbread men lying on a tray,
They all jumped up and ran away.
Oh, how I wish they had stayed with me to play.
Next time I'll eat them before they run away.

 

One little, two little, three little cookies,

Four little, five little, six little cookies,

Seven little, eight little, nine little cookies,

Ten little cookies, what shall we do?

Let’s have a party and we’ll share them,

Let’s have a party and we’ll share them,

Let’s have a party and we’ll share them,

One for me, and one for you. 

 

There was a tiny baker,

Who had a tiny shop.

He baked a tiny cookie,

With frosting on the top.

He snatched it from the oven,

And ate that cookie up.

Then washed it down with sarsaparilla

From a tiny cup.
