Five Little Speckled Frogs

Enjoy this wonderful counting song with your young children. Repeat the verse, taking away a frog each time, and showing that number with your fingers each time, until there are no green speckled frogs (and no fingers left).

Five little speckled frogs
Sat on a speckled log
Eating the most delicious bugs (yum yum)
One jumped into the pool
Where it was nice and cool
Then there were four green speckled frogs.
(glub glub)

Four little speckled frogs
Sat on a speckled log
Eating the most delicious bugs (yum yum)
One jumped into the pool
Where it was nice and cool
Then there were four green speckled frogs.

Eating the most delicious bugs (yum yum)
One jumped into the pool
Where it was nice and cool
Then there were four green speckled frogs.

Sat on a speckled log
Eating the most delicious bugs (yum yum)

Eating the most delicious bugs (yum yum)
