This traditional fingerplay has always been one of our children’s favorites.  We added these adorable illustrations to make it even more fun. While saying the poem with you, they will be learning some early math skills, like counting to 5 forward and backward.  They will also be learning number/quantity relationships.

This activity will be a great addition to your September zoo lessons in our Complete Curriculum for Early Learners. 

What’s Included?

This printable comes with 8 pages including full-color illustrations and easy-to-follow, illustrated instructions.  It also includes the words to the fingerplay, Five Little Monkeys, along with the actions and all of the illustrations you’ll need. This digital download comes as a PDF for you to print on standard 8 ½” x 11” sheets of paper.
