5 little apples hanging on a tree,
teasing Mr. Slinky Worm,
You can’t eat me! You can’t eat me!
Along came Mr. Slinky Worm as quiet as can be
and… CRUNCH!

Zero apples hanging on a tree,
away inched Mr. Slinky worm
as full as can be!

I love using concrete manipulatives when doing finger plays with the children at line time. We can still use our fingers to tell the story, but it's nice to have a visual image, too. Last school year, I made magnetic felt pieces to accompany my favorite Halloween and winter finger plays. The children thought they were fabulous! So, I decided to get on it and make a few more before school starts! This time, instead of felt, I used paper, and then ran everything through the laminator. Hopefully, these will be more durable because they sure get a lot of use!
Here's a close-up of Mr. Slinky Worm. I gave him a mustache as a nod to MUS (a visually delicious blog - take a peek if you haven't already) and her love of mustaches! ;{0
Oh! FYI - not that you would ever do this - DON"T put rhinestones through the laminator. Ummm... this is actually Mr. Slinky Worm II, and there's a rhinestone melting away somewhere inside my laminator as we speak. Yikes!

Great idea. My kids like things to go with finger plays too, and I didn't have one to go along with our apple theme for September. Oh, and I won't put a rhinestone through the laminator either! LOL
