Five Candles on the Cake
Five candles on a birthday cake
Five candles on a birthday cake
Five, and not one more.
You may blow one candle out, [make blowing sound and motion]
And that leaves four!
Four candles on a birthday cake
There for all to see.
You may blow one candle out, [make blowing sound and motion]
And that makes three!
Three candles on a birthday cake
Standing straight and true.
You may blow one candle out, [make blowing sound and motion]
And that leaves two!
Two candles on a birthday cake
Helping us have fun.
You may blow one candle out, [make blowing sound and motion]
And that leaves one!
One candle on a birthday cake
We know its task is done.
You may blow this candle out, [make blowing sound and motion]And that leaves none!

Birthdays
Birthday candles, one-two-three (hold up fingers on the count)
Birthday candles just for me! (point to self)
Last year two, next year four (hold up 2 fingers on left hand and 4 on right)
Birthday candles I want more! (hold up all fingers)

Thanks for sharing these. I’m trying to get my son “ready” for his birthday and he likes when I sing new songs. These will be fun.

Did you come up with these? These are so great and very creative!! I’m a music therapist and would love to be able to add these to my repertoire, would you mind? Thanks so much!
