Flannel Boards
Five Little Cookies
(Traditional. Cut five cookie shapes from felt, fun foam or paper. Glue small magnets to
the back of each cookie. Instead of a felt board, use a metal cookie pan for a flannel
board. Hold the pan in your lap. Put all the cookies on the pan and remove them one at a
time as you recite rhyme. Use a potholder and spatula as props. Be sure that the pan is not
aluminum or the magnets will not stick.)
Five little cookies with frosting galore,
Mother ate one and then there were four.
Four little cookies, two and two, you see,
Father ate one and then there were three.
Three little cookies, before I knew,
Sister ate one and then there were two.
