My Five Little Monkey’s Swinging In A Tree song has a fresh, new beat and music that will get your children singing and moving along. Your children will want to sing along and move to this wonderful circle time and finger play song. Using finger plays and songs in early childhood is a great way to help young children learn language, gain large and small motor skills, and work on memory social skills. They can move their fingers and their arms like monkeys swinging in a tree and with hands together out front. They can try to swim and sway like a crocodile, and then as the crocodile “snaps” at the monkey, children can do one hard “clap”. It’s a classic nursery rhyme and one of the most popular finger plays for children everywhere. This Five Little Monkey’s Swinging In A Tree has a happy, positive ending where the monkey’s do not get eaten by the crocodile. Basic subtraction is the math skill in this simple finger play. As the crocodile snaps at one monkey, it goes away and one less monkey is swinging in the tree. Finger plays help to develop memory skills, verbal communication and eye-hand coordination. Finger plays also help to develop muscle control and helps to increase attention span. I hope your children enjoy my fun, peaceful version of Five Little Monkeys Swinging In A Tree. Lyrics Five little monkeys swinging in a tree Teasing Mr. crocodile “You can’t catch me“. Along comes Mr. crocodile quiet as can be He snaps that monkey right out of that tree Four little monkeys swinging in a tree Teasing Mr. crocodile “You can’t catch me“. Along comes Mr. crocodile quiet as can be He snaps that monkey right out of that tree Three little monkeys swinging in a tree Teasing Mr. Crocodile “You can’t catch me“. Along comes Mr. crocodile quiet as can be He snaps that monkey right out of that tree Two little monkeys swinging in a tree Teasing Mr. crocodile “You can’t catch me“. Along comes Mr. Crocodile quiet as can be He snaps that monkey right out of that tree One little monkeys swinging in a tree Teasing Mr. crocodile “You can’t catch me“. Along comes Mr. crocodile quiet as can be He snaps that monkey right out of that tree No more monkeys swinging in a tree Teasing Mr. crocodile “You can’t catch me“. He snapped those monkeys but they got away Now they’re back swinging in the tree all day Five little monkeys swinging in a tree “Nana, nana,boo,boo“ “You can’t catch me“
