There was an alligator who lived in the glade. (open & close hands as a mouth)
He swam in the swamp, (pretend to swim)
and napped in the shade. (pretend to sleep)
He snapped at a bird. (open and close hands)
He snapped at a bee. (open and close hands)
He snapped at a frog. (open and close hands)
and he snapped at me. (open and close hands)
He caught the bird. (pretend to catch with hands)
He caught the bee. (pretend to catch with hands)
He caught the frog. (pretend to catch with hands)
But, he didn’t catch me! (shake head “no”)
