Runaway Cookies

(can be made into a flannelboard)

The Cookie Jar People
Hopped out one night
When the cookie jar lid
Was not on tight
The Gingerbread man
Opened raisin eyes
And looked about in great surprise
The Frosted Bunny
Twinkled his nose
And danced around on his cookie toes
The Sugary Duck began to quack
And shake the sugar off his back
The Cinnamon Bear
Could only grunt
For he was too fat to do a stunt
The Coconut Lamb jumped up so high
That his little white tail flew toward the sky
They were all so happy to be at play
That they danced and danced and danced away
They danced away so very far
That they never came back to the cookie jar
