One, Two, Three, Four, Five

Once I caught a fish alive

Singing a nursery rhyme is a great way to bond with your child, support their language development and build their counting skills!

Have a go at following the song lyrics and watch the video for the music below:

One, Two, Three, Four, Five lyrics

One, two, three, four, five,
Once I caught a fish alive,
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
Then I let it go again.
Why did you let it go?
Because it bit my finger so.
Which finger did it bite?
This little finger on my right.

Watch the video

Take a look at this video featuring Literacy Champions volunteers in our Read on Nottingham Hub singing this song. Why not try it for yourself at home?
