Counting/Flannel Rhyme: Five Snuggly Hedgehogs

I love hedgehogs - they are the cutest things ever. This rhyme is based off of 5 Hungry Ants, and includes a lot of actions and interactions between caregiver and child. I used this successfully in baby story time and I think pre-k kids will like it too! My images are just free clip art, although I'm sure some talented felter could make the cutest flannel set.

     Five snuggly hedgehogs curled tight in a ball
     (Make a fist)
     Prickly and tickley one and all.
     (Tickle child)
     The sun came out to warm up their backs.
     (Rub the child's back)
     And woke up one and went out for a snack.
     (Hold up 1 finger)
     He sniffed at the tulip.
     (Tap child's nose)
     He nibbled on the rose.
     (Tap child's mouth)
     But the tricky dandelion tickled his nose!
     (Tickle their nose)
     Aaaaa-choo!
     (Mime a large sneeze)
     And away he rolls!
     (Roll hands)
