Using fall leaves (either silk or die cut) and small rakes, have the children rake leaves on the rug. As the children rake, sing “Leaves Are Dancing” to the tune of “Are You Sleeping?”:


Leaves are dancing,

Leaves are dancing,

All around, all around.

All the leaves are dancing,

All the leaves are dancing,

On the ground, on the ground.


Have the children then pretend they are leaves falling to the ground.
