One, Two, Three, Four Nursery Rhyme: Lyrics, Origins, and Hand Motions

 "One, two, three, four, five, Once I caught a fish alive" is a popular English nursery rhyme that is often sung or recited by young children.

The rhyme is usually accompanied by hand motions, with the child holding up fingers as the numbers are counted, and then wiggling the little finger when it is mentioned in the last stanza.

The origins of the rhyme are unclear, but it is believed to have originated in England in the 19th century. It is a simple and catchy tune that helps young children learn to count and develop their fine motor skills through finger motions. It has also become a popular song to sing during circle time in preschool and kindergarten classrooms.

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
