Five little monkeys game — how to play

1
  Hold up your fingers to match the number of monkeys.
2  Pretend your fingers are monkeys and bounce them up and down on your other hand.
3  When a monkey falls off, hold up one finger.
4  When a monkey bumps his head, hold your head with both hands.
5  When Mama calls the doctor, hold an imaginary phone to your ear.
6  Shake your index finger. (“No more monkeys jumping on the bed!”)

Repeat until you get to one little monkey!

The Song

Five little monkeys jumping on the bed,

One fell off and bumped his head,

Mama called the doctor and the doctor said,

“No more monkeys jumping on the bed!”

Four little monkeys, etc, etc.
