It's time to sleep. 
It's time for bed
Get jammies on then lay down my head

But I'm not tired,
Can't fall asleep
What shall I do?
Let's count some sheep!

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Now we counted up to 10,
Still not asleep.
Let's count again!

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Night Night!
Sleep Tight!

Hints and Tips: 

  • Use flashcards of each number when singing the song. 
  • Create actions for each verse. 
  • Create felts of sheep to count.
