This is Jack-O happy.
This is Jack-O sad.
Now you see him sleepy.
Now you see him mad.
This is Jack in small pieces,
But in a pie
He is best of all!
traditional
Five little Pumpkins
sitting on a gate.
The first one said,
“Oh my it’s getting late.”
traditional
I see pumpkins large,
I see pumpkins small.
I see pumpkins short,
I see pumpkins tall.
I see pumpkins orange,
I see pumpkins green.
Just what we need
For fall and Halloween!
traditional
(Tune: I’m a Little Teapot)
I’m a little pumpkin
Round and stout
Packed full of seeds
That you can scoop out!
Clean me up and carve me
And then I’ll be
The best Jack-o-lantern
That ever could be!
traditional
Scarecrow looks so funny,
Flopping in the field, outside.
Maybe the crows are laughing
As they fly near—
Then hide.

A round little pumpkin
grew in the sun.
It grew and it grew
To a big, big one.
It grew and it grew
And became on Halloween
The best Jack-o-lantern
ever seen!
traditional
On Halloween,
Strange things are seen.
We dress-up all dandy,
And ask for some candy:
Trick-or-treat!

Nocturnal animals
Fascinate me.
While I sleep in bed—
They wake up instead.
