5 Little Pumpkins Sitting on a Gate

Another simple song for the youngest ones...

Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate
the first one said: "Oh my, it's getting late!"
the second one said: "There are witches in the air"
the third one said: "...but we don't care"
the fourth one said: "Let's run and run and run"
the fifth one said: "We're ready for some fun!"
Then Ooohhh went the wind
and out went the lights
and the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!

The Skeleton Game

Before you begin, cut roughly around the pieces so that you have one skull, one body, two arms and two legs for every player. Put all the pieces into the middle of the table and shake the die to decide who starts.
Prima di iniziare la partita procuratevi un dado da gioco e stampate uno scheletro per ogni giocatore. Ritagliatene le varie parti seguendo i tratteggi e mettetele al centro del tavolo poi tirando il dado decidete chi inizia il gioco.

Each roll of the die determines whether you can take a piece towards assembling your own skeleton.
Ad ogni numero del dado corrisponde una parte del corpo che potete prendere per ricostruire il vostro scheletro.
For a 6, take a skull (teschio)
For a 5, take a body (corpo,busto)
For a 3 or a 4, take a leg (gamba)
For a 1 or a 2, take an arm (braccio)

If you roll a number and you already have the corresponding part, you miss your go.
Se il dado ritorna sul numero corrispondente ad una parte dello scheletro che avete già recuperato, passate il turno.

The first to assemble a complete skeleton is the winner.
Il primo giocatore che riesce a completare il suo scheletro vince!

Enjoy yourself with some more vocabulary:
can you name the other parts of this skeleton?
ossa= bones, mani= hands, piedi= feet, ginocchia= knees, occhi= eyes,
naso= nose, bocca= mouth, (testa= head)

Well done!


Nota bene:
puoi facilmente stampare la figura salvandola prima sul tuo desktop (mouse tasto destro, salva con nome e poi stampa!)
