An autumn variation of the familiar song:

The Leaves on The Tree
sung to: "The Wheels on The Bus"
Copyright © 2000, 2004 Barbara Pratt. All rights reserved.

The leaves on the tree are falling down,
falling down, falling down.
The leaves on the tree are falling down,
Red, yellow, orange, and brown.
(Note: Pretend to drop leaves from above your head as the color is mentioned in the song.)

The leaves on the ground go crunch, crunch, crunch,
crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch.
The leaves on the ground go crunch, crunch, crunch.
All through the fall.
(Note: Have the child/children pretend they are crunching leaves on the ground while singing this verse.)
