FINGERPLAYS
Teasing Mr. Shark (Tune:
5 Little Monkeys Swinging in a Tree)
Five little fishes, Swimming in the sea.
Teasing Mr. Shark, You can`t catch me, you can`t catch me.
Along comes Mr. Shark, As quiet as can be...
Snap! The little fish
right out of the sea!Five little fishes, Swimming in the sea.
Teasing Mr. Shark, You can`t catch me, you can`t catch me.
Along comes Mr. Shark, As quiet as can be...
(Repeat with four little fishes, etc...down to one.)
Now Mr. Shark is lonely as can be!
Five Little
Fishies
Five little fishies, swimming in a pool
(Wiggle five fingers)
The first one said, "The pool is cool."
(Show one finger, then wrap arms around body)
The second one said, "The pool is deep."
(Show two fingers, then hands measure 'deep')
The third one said, "I want to sleep."
(Show three fingers, then rest head on hands)
The fourth one said, "Let's take a dip." (Show four fingers, then hands 'dive' into water)
The fifth one said, "I spy a ship." (Show five fingers, then form scope with hands to peer through)
Fisher boat comes, (Form 'V' with fingers, then move hands away from body)
Line goes kersplash (Pretend to throw fishing line)
Away the five little fishies dash, dash, dash! (Wiggle five fingers away)

Have You Ever Gone A Fishin
Have
you ever gone a fishin' on a warm summers day,
Have you ever seen the fishies just a playin' in the bay?
With their hands in their pockets and their pockets in their pants,
Have you ever seen the Fishies doin' the Hootchie-Kootchie dance?
Have you ever seen the fishies just a playin' in the bay?
With their hands in their pockets and their pockets in their pants,
Have you ever seen the Fishies doin' the Hootchie-Kootchie dance?
You never did, you never will, boom, boom.
Have you ever gone a fishin' on a cold winter’s day?
Have you ever seen the fishies just a frozen in the bay?
With their hands in their pockets and their pockets in their pants,
Have you ever seen the fishies do the Hootchie-Kootchie dance?
You never did, you never will.
Have you ever gone a fishin' on a warm spring day?
Have you ever seen the fishies just a swimmin' in the bay?
With their hands in their pockets and their pockets in their pants,
Have you ever seen the fishies doin' the Hootchie-Kootchie dance?
You never did, you never will, boom, boom.
Have you ever gone a fishin' on a warm spring day?
Have you ever seen the fishies just a swimmin' in the bay?
With their hands in their pockets and their pockets in their pants,
Have you ever seen the fishies doin' the Hootchie-Kootchie dance?
You never did, you never will, boom, boom.
