I Love Jelly

"I Love Jelly" is a children's song, sung to the tune of "Frere Jacques".

Bonus activity: Set up a jelly-tasting station where you prepare toast for the children. Include the usual favorites like grape and strawberry as well as offbeat flavors like jalapeno and pomegranate. Include several sugar-free jellies for children with special dietary needs. Prepare a piece of toast for each child. Cut each piece of toast into 4 squares. Then let each child choose 4 flavors of the jelly he or she would like to try and give him or her a ballot to fill out. Tally the votes at the end of the session and write the results on the blackboard. Was grape the favorite flavor? Any votes for jalapeno? Discuss why or why not.

I love jelly,
I love jelly,
On my toast,
On my toast.
(Strawberry) is the flavor,
(Strawberry) is the flavor,
I love most,
I love most!
