Three Little Kittens Have Lost Their Mittens



Three little kittens, they lost their mittens,


And they began to cry,

Oh, mother dear, we sadly fear


That we have lost our mittens.

What! Lost your mittens, you naughty kittens!


Then you shall have no pie.

Mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow.

You shall have no pie.


The three little kittens, they found their mittens,


And they began to cry,

Oh, mother dear, see here, see here,


Our mittens we have found.

Put on your mittens, you silly kittens,


And you shall have some pie.

Purr-r, purr-r, purr-r,

Oh, let us have some pie.


The three little kittens, put on their mittens,


And soon ate up the pie;

Oh, mother dear, we greatly fear


That we have soiled our mittens

What! Soiled your mittens, you naughty kittens!


Then they began to sigh,

Mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow.

They began to sigh.


The three little kittens, they washed their mittens,


And hung them out to dry;

Oh! mother dear, do you not hear


That we have washed our mittens?

What! Washed your mittens, then you’re such good kittens.


But I smell a rat close by

Mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow.

We smell a rat close by.


Today was nursery rhyme day at school. The girls were thrilled to be kittens and had a great time showing off their costumes at school. Their teacher was Mother Goose and the kids were able to choose what rhyme character they would be. We, of course, had to go with a trio theme!

Next year maybe it will be the Three Blind Mice :)
