It is Almost Halloween

"It is Almost Halloween" is a children's song, sung to the tune of "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star".

It is almost Halloween,
So let's all draw a spooky scene
Like ghosts floating through the air
Or a vampire (if you dare!).
It is almost Halloween,
So let's all draw a spooky scene!

Bonus activity: Have children suggest other spooky scenes to draw and list them on the blackboard, such as:
a haunted house
a witch flying across the moon
a mummy
a scary-faced pumpkin,
then give children crayons and paper and let them choose a spooky scene to draw.

I'm a Little Witch

"I'm a Little Witch" is a children's song, sung to the tune of "I'm a Little Teapot".

I'm a little witch and I can fly
On my broomstick very high.
Every year on Halloween,
I sweep the moon and stars all clean!

Mary, Mary, You Look Scary:A Halloween Nursery Ryhme

(Note: Mary, Mary You Look Scary is a Halloween version of the classic nursery rhyme "Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary".)

Mary, Mary,
You look scary
In your new costume-
With your pointed hat,
Your jet-black cat
And your old straw broom!

Bonus questions to ask students:

What is Mary dressed as?

Can you guess which holiday Mary is celebrating?

A Dentist For Halloween

I think I'll be a dentist
This year for Halloween
And scare the trick-or-treaters
Into keeping their teeth clean!

Bonus activity: Explain to children that they should brush their teeth twice a day, once in the morning and once before bed to guard against cavities. Brushing at night is especially important, as you're asleep for 8-10 hours, giving bacteria lots of time to destroy your teeth.
