This is a classic song where children try to find out "who stole the cookie" by naming each of their friends in the circle. This is a great way to learn friends' names.
Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar?
(Child's Name) stole the cookie from the cookie jar.
Who, me?
Yes, you!
It couldn't be!
Then who?
(Child who had their name called chooses someone else)
(Child's Name) stole the cookie from the cookie jar.
Who, me?
Yes, you!
It couldn't be!
Then who?
(Child who had their name called chooses someone else)
(Child's Name) stole the cookie from the cookie jar.
Who, me?
Yes, you!
It couldn't be!
Then who?
*Chant continues until all children had their names called.
