Intro

Lulu has five seeds today,
And five small holes along the way.

Verse 1

Touch each seed and count it slow:
One, two, three, four, five in a row.
One seed goes in every hole.
Counting helps her reach the goal.

Chorus

One, two, three, four, five.
Little seeds will grow alive.
Touch and count, then check again.
One in each from start to end.

Verse 2

Three holes filled, two empty still.
Lulu works with happy will.
Soon her little tray is bare,
And every hole has one seed there.

Final Chorus

One, two, three, four, five.
Five small drops help seeds to thrive.
None left over, none were missed.
Lulu counted every bit.

Outro

Five bright flowers may soon appear.
Careful counting helped them here.
