Flannels, Songs and Story Extensions

Don't Fidget A Feather by Erica Silverman makes a wonderful storytelling script.
Duck on A Bike by David Shannon works well as a flannel story.
I Wish That I Had Duck Feet by Theo LeSeig can be transformed into a prop story.

Baby Duck, Baby Duck 
Baby duck, baby duck,
Are you in the (pink) egg?
Noooooo....
(repeat until duckling is found)

Five Little Ducks in a Big Blue Tub
Five little ducks in a big blue tub
Mama scrubbed the (yellow) one-
Scrubba-dub-dub
(repeat until none are left)

Five Little Ducks Went Out One Day
Five little ducks went out one day,
Over the hills and far away
Mother Duck said, "Quack-quack-quack-quack"
But only four little ducks came back
(repeat until no ducks are left)

Sad Mother Duck went out one day
Over the hills and far away
Mother Duck said, "Quack-quack-quack-quack"

And all five ducks came waddling back

Ten Little Duckings
Ten little ducklings,
Dash, dash, dash!
Jumped in the duck pond,
Splash, splash, splash!

When Mother called them,
"Quack, quack, quack!"
Ten little ducklings,
Swam right back.

Six Little Ducks
Six little ducks that I once knew
Fat ones, skinny ones, fair ones, too
But the one little duck with the feather on his back
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack

Down to the river they would go
Wibble, wobble, wibble, wobble, to and fro
But the one little duck with the feather on his back
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack

Back from the river they would come
Wibble, wobble, wibble, wobble, ho, hum, hum
But the one little duck with the feather on his back
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.

Little White Duck
There's a little white duck, sitting in the water.
A little white duck, doing what he ought a!
He took a bite of the lily pad, Flapped his wings and
he said, "I'm glad I'm a little white duck sitting in the water.
Quack, quack, quack."

There's a little green frog, swimming in the water.
A little green frog, doing what he ought a!
He jumped right off the lily pad, That the little duck bit and he said,
"I'm glad I'm a little green frog swimming in the water.
Glub, glub, glub.

There's a little black bug, floating on the water.
A little black bug, doing what he ought a!
He tickled the frog on the lily pad That the little duck bit
and he said, "I'm glad I'm a little black bug floating on the water.
Chirp, chirp, chirp."

There's a little red snake, laying in the water.
A little red snake, doing what he ought a!
He frightened the duck and the frog so bad, He ate the little
bug, and he said, "I'm glad I'm a little red snake laying in the water.
Wriggle, wriggle, wriggle."

Now there's nobody left, sitting in the water.
Nobody left, doing what he ought a!
There's nothing left but the lily pad. The duck and the frog ran
away. I'm sad. "Cause there's nobody left sitting in the water.
Boo, hoo, hoo.
