If bubble gum is free, free, free,
Please give some to me, me, me.
I am clever, not a dunce.
How many can I chew at once?

Every girl loves DG magazine.
It’s filled with helpful tips for me.

Plus advice columns and inspiring stories.
The quizzes and crafts are really neat.

I can never wait until I get the next issue.
When it finally comes, I jump with glee.

I always read it from cover to cover.
How many issues have I seen?

I wish, I wish for strawberry pie,
Apple, cherry, my oh my.

I wish, I wish for tiger lily,
Lilac, daisy petals frilly.

I wish, I wish for a butterfly,
Flitting, floating, high in the sky.

I wish, I wish on a shooting star
That my wishes will come true.
And my dreams will never be far!

–Leandra, N.Y.

iPods are cool,
But they’re just a tool.

Best friends are better,
They stick together!

At your house or at the mall,
No matter if you’re short or tall.

Go best friends,
Go best friends!

How many best friends do you have?

1, 2, 3…

–Elise, Vt.

How many times, how many times
Can you jump?

How many times, how many times
Without hitting a bump?

How many times, how many times
Without falling on your rump?

How many times, how many times,
Can you jump?

1, 2, 3…

–Emily, Ore.

Cherry blossoms on the tree,
Grab as many you can see.
Reach up high, reach down low,
Pull some from that blossom snow.
As they’re falling from that tree,
How many can you catch? Let’s see!

1, 2, 3…
(Up to 8)

Strong wind blows through swirling faster,
Hurry catch them ‘fore they’re gone!
(Spin ropes faster)
1, 2, 3…

–Nicole, Penn.

Butter, sugar, milk, and flour,
Frosting, sprinkles,
Superpower!
(Raise an arm in superman form)

Hopping, hopping everywhere!
(Pretend to shiver while hopping in a circle)

One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish,
Bouncing, bouncing, make a wish!
(Close your eyes, make a wish and jump out)

–Lily and Marie, Wash.

Doctor mean,
Doctor good,
Doctor caring,

Turn around, (Turn around)
Touch the ground, (Touch the ground)
Kick your parents out of town, (Kick)
Give you candy,
Give you sweets,
Give you lots of yummy treats!
