Flannel Friday: Four Little Rockets!

This Flannel Friday is brought to you by Andrea from Rovingfiddlehead Kidlit!

Although Andrea has a template available, I made these from a clip art search on Google and did the black backing to give it more of a space theme. I made five (because as we all know, that’s the magic number in storytime!), and then went back to Andrea’s rhyme and saw it’s only for four little rockets. Here it is:

Four Little Rockets
Four little rockets winking at me.
One shot off and then there were three!
Three little rockets with nothing to do.
One shot off, and then there were two!
Two little rockets afraid of the sun.
One shot off, and then there was one!
One little rocket alone is no fun.
It shot off, and then there was none!

I am hosting Flannel Friday this week, so stop back for more flannel-goodness tonight!
