 Snowflakes Dance Around
(tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star; with actions)

Snowflakes, snowflakes dance around.
Snowflakes, snowflakes touch the ground.
Snowflakes, snowflakes in the air.
Snowflakes, snowflakes twirl around.
Snowflakes, snowflakes everywhere.
Snowflakes, snowflakes dance around.
Snowflakes, snowflakes touch the ground.

Five Little Snowmen
Five little snowmen (hold up five fingers)
Standing in a row,
Each with a hat (touch your head/hat)
and a big red bow! (tie a bow at your neck)
Out came the sun (arms in a circle)
And it stayed all day!
And one little snowman
Melted away. (bend one finger down.)
Four little snowmen....
Three little snowmen...
Two little snowmen...
One little snowman... And the last little snowman melted away.
