There Was an Old Lady that…

At our picnic yesterday our facilitators performed a story.  I wrote a new version for the story of There Was An Old Lady.  Our old lady swallowed some bears.

                          

There was an old lady who stood on a chair and swallowed some bears.

I don’t know why she swallowed the bears but she didn’t care.

                               

There was an old lady who swallowed the some sun

She thought that would be fun to swallow the sun.

She swallowed the sun, to shine for the bears

I don’t know why she swallowed the bears but she didn’t care.

                               

There was an old lady who swallowed a sheet

She thought it would be neat to swallow a sheet.

She swallowed the sheet to lie under the sun

She swallowed the sun, some fun for the bears

I don’t know why she swallowed the bears but she didn’t care.

                           

There was an old lady who swallowed a basket

Wasn’t it fantastic that she swallowed a basket?

She swallowed the basket to sit on the sheet

She swallowed the sheet to lie under the sun

She swallowed the sun, some fun for the bears

I don’t know why she swallowed the bears but she didn’t care.

                                

There was an old lady who swallowed some snacks

She swallowed packs and packs of little fishy snacks.

She swallowed the snacks to go in the basket.

She swallowed the basket to sit on the sheet

She swallowed the sheet to lie under the sun

She swallowed the sun, some fun for the bears

I don’t know why she swallowed the bears but she didn’t care.

                                 

There was an old lady who swallowed a melon

There is no tellin’ how she swallowed that melon.

She swallowed the melon to go with the snacks

She swallowed the snacks to go in the basket.

She swallowed the basket to sit on the sheet

She swallowed the sheet to lie under the sun

She swallowed the sun, some fun for the bears

I don’t know why she swallowed the bears but she didn’t care.

                      

When she was full and jumped down from the chair

She turned to see a picnic for bears.

Here’s the video of our performance.
