There are so many fun activities to do with little ones during autumn! 

They love music and movement, so these songs and chants would be a perfect addition to a home day. Enjoy!

APPLES OFF MY TREE (Sing to the tune of "Skip to My Lou")

Pick some apples off my tree,

Pick some apples off my tree,

Pick some apples off my tree,

Pick them all for you and me!

***

ROUND THE APPLE TREE

Play a singing circle game to the tune of "Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush." Children skip in a circle, holding hands, while singing the first verse.

Verse 1:

Here we go round the apple tree,

The apple tree, the apple tree.

Here we go round the apple tree,

So early in the morning.

Verse 2: This is the way we plant the seeds.

Verse 3: This is the way the little seed sprouts.

Verse 4: This is the way it grows to a tree.

Verse 5: This is the way the flowers blossom.

Verse 6: This is the way the apples grow.

Verse 7: This is the way the apples are picked.

Apple Song

(Sung to the tune of "Have You Ever Seen a Lassie")

Have you ever seen an apple, an apple, an apple

Have you ever seen an apple, that grows on a tree?

A red one, a yellow one, a red one, a yellow one

Have you ever seen an apple, that frowns on a tree?

APPLES

Apples here (point to yourself)

Apples there (point away)

Apples are growing everywhere (hands form a circle...the world)

Some are high (point up)

Some are low (point down)

You will see apples wherever you go (point to eyes)

Apples on the left (extend left arm)

Apples on the right (extend right arm)

You will see (point to eyes again)

Both day and night (Hands together and head down on them).
