Fitness Fruit Salad

Let's make a fitness fruit salad!

Be a banana- curve around (x3)

Let's make a fitness fruit salad

If you'd like to be a pear

Point your arms into the air (x2)

Be a banana- curve around (x3)

Let's make a fitness fruit salad

A plum is small and sweet and round-

So bend your knees and touch the ground (x2)

Be a banana-curve around (x3)

Let's make a fitness fruit salad

A pineapple top points to the sky

So lift your arms and stretch them high (x2)

Be a banana-curve around (x3)

We've made a fitness fruit salad!

Rhymes

Pancakes - Christina Rossetti

Pancake

Mixing pancakes

stirring pancakes

pour them in the pan

frying pancakes

flipping pancakes

catch them if you can!

Peas

5 Little Peas in a peapod pressed

1 grew 2 grew so did all the rest

they grew and grew and did not stop

until one day the peapod popped!

Apples

Here is the tree with leaves so green

Here are the apples that hang between

When the wind blows the apples fall

Here is a basket to gather them all

Cherries

I had a little cherry stone

And put it in the ground

and when next year I went to look

a tiny shoot I found

The shoot grew upwards day by day

And soon became a tree

I picked the cherries one by one

Then ate them for my tea!
