Five fat sausages frying in a pan (hold up 5 fingers)
All of a sudden one went BANG! (clap hands)
Four fat sausages…

There were NO sausages left.

Make a Pancake
Make a pancake, pat, pat, pat (pat hands together)
Do not make it fat, fat, fat (stretch hands wide)
You must make it flat, flat, flat(pat and press hands together)

I’m toast in the toaster
I’m getting very hot
Tick tock, tick tock, up I pop!

If You Like Your Eggs Scrambled
If you like your eggs scrambled, clap your hands
If you like your eggs scrambled, clap your hands

If you want toast instead, nod your head (mmm-hmmm)

Observations
The kids really liked the finger rhyme and making the “bang” sound. They also got a kick out of “The Donut Song.” We acted like we were running to the store.
