Flannel Friday: 5 Little Cowpokes

Happy Flannel Friday y’all! This fun counting down song was a blast with my toddlers and preschoolers the last time I used it during storytime- I can’t wait to sing it again come January and the Western Stock Show! It goes a little something like this:

5 Little Cowpokes

5 little cowpokes riding to the store (bounce while pretending to hold reigns)

1 stepped on a cactus – OUCH (grab toe) and then were 4!

4 little cowpokes racing to the tree (bounce faster)

1 stepped on a cactus – OUCH (grab toe) and then were 3!

3 little cowpokes riding under the sky so blue (bounce normal)

1 stepped on a cactus – OUCH (grab toe) and then were 2!

2 little cowpokes racing under the sun (bounce faster)

1 stepped on a cactus – OUCH (grab toe) and then was 1!

1 little cowpoke riding all alone (bounce slowly)

So he turned right around and he rode on home.
