Jack-o’-Lantern
Jack-o’-Lantern, Jack-o’-Lantern
You are such a pretty sight
As you sit there in the window
Looking out at the night.
You were once an orange pumpkin
Growing on a sturdy vine
Now you are my Jack-o’-Lantern
Let your candle light shine

The Skeletons are on Parade
The skeletons are on parade, they march along the street
With bony fingers, bony toes, bony hands and feet
Bony bony bony bones  with nothing in between
The skeletons are on parade, they march on Halloween!

Ten Little Fingers
(spooky singing voice:)  I have ten little fingers, they all belong to me…
I can make them do things, wouldn’t you like to see?
I can make them shut tight!  I can open them wide!
I can make them come together… I can make them hide!
I can make them jump high!  I can make them go low!
I can fold them quietly in my lap just so-o-o-o….  Booo!

Criss-Cross Applesauce
Criss-Cross Applesauce,
Spiders crawling up your back…
Cool breeze… Tight squeeze!
Now you’ve got the shivers!

Old Granny Witch
Old Granny Witch reached in a ditch
She picked up a (penny) and she thought she was rich.
Old Granny Witch jumped in the ditch… (nickel)
Old Granny Witch jumped out of the ditch… (dime)
Old Granny Witch jumped over the ditch… (quarter)
Old Granny Witch ran around the ditch… (dollar)

(over)

Stirring our Brew
Stirring and stirring and stirring our brew-w-w-w-…
(whispering:) Tip-toe, tip-toe, tip toe…. (shout:) “Booo!”

There was an Old Woman who Lived in the Woods
There was an old woman who lived in the woods…
W-o-o-o-o, w-o-o-w-o-o-w-o-o…
She had a black cat whose name was “Boo.”
W-o-o-o-o, w-o-o-w-o-o-w-o-o…
One day they were walking along the road…
W-o-o-o-o, w-o-o-w-o-o-w-o-o…
(Make up the rest of the story as we go, with the end being “Boo!)

Assorted Blessings

Thank you for the wind and rain, for warm and sunny weather.
Thank you for the food we eat, and that we’re all together.

Thank you for this food, this food, this glorious, glorious food
And the animals, and the vegetables, and the minerals that make it possible.

Earth who gives to us this food
Sun who makes it ripe and good
Dear Earth, dear Sun by you we live
So our loving thanks we give.

We love our bread, we love our butter
But most of all, we love each other.
