5 Green Speckled Frogs


In this song there are 5 green speckled frogs sitting on a great big log.  One at a time, 1 frog jumps into the pool to cool off.  The song teaches the math concept of subtraction - starting with 5 and taking 1 away each time until there are no more frogs sitting on the log.  Children love to sit on their pretend logs and then jump into the pretend pool as they sing along.  They can also use their fingers on one hand to count down from 5 frogs to zero frogs!
