Three Little Sound Effects Jumping on the Bed (Monkeys, that is​!​)

from Animal songs by Margie La Bella

/

about

Benefits: This is an opportunity for children to make sounds (there's no wrong way to do it) and anticipate the sequence of the story - to which all children can relate!

Adaptations: Kids can pick up pictures of this story and put them in the correct order. This story can be acted out with children taking on different roles. Certainly kids can share doctor stories! Use pictures and give children a lesson on counting and one-to-one correspondence counting.

lyrics

Am G F E7 Am G F E7
1. Four Little (crazy monkey sounds) jumpin' on the bed; one fell off and bumped his head.

C G F E7 ( no chord ) Am G F E
Mommy called the doctor- the doctor said “ No more monkeys jumpin' on the bed!”
Am G F E7



2. Three little (monkey sounds) jumpin' on the bed;
one fell off and bumped his head. (Make a long downward vocal scoop and pop your lips.)
Mommy called the doctor
- the doctor said “ No more monkeys jumpin' on the bed!”


3. Two little (monkey sounds) jumpin' on the bed;
Make a long downward vocal scoop and pop your lips.
Mommy called the doctor (imitate the sound of a phone.)
-the doctor said “ No more monkeys jumpin' on the bed!”


4. One little ( monkey sounds) jumpin' on the bed;
Make a long downward vocal scoop and pop your lips.
imitate the sound of a phone.
the doctor said “ No more monkeys jumpin' on the bed!” (speak in a “canned” voice, and/or hold your nose and speak.)


Purpose: To encourage vocal/sound play and auditory memory
