1. Five Little Monsters: (Rhyme)

Five little monsters by the light of the moon
Stirring pudding with a wooden pudding spoon.
The first one says, "It mustn't be runny."
The second one says, "That would make it taste funny."
The third one says, "It mustn't be lumpy."
The fourth one says, "That would make me grumpy."
The fifth one smiles, hums a little tune,
And licks all the drippings from the wooden pudding spoon!
