I see bird's nests,
Butterflies too,
flowers too.
Everything is growing,
The wind is gently blowing.
Spring is here, spring is here.
Some are nice and warm.
Rainy days and windy days,
Maybe it will storm.
Warm or cold or wet or dry,
What will the weather be?
I think Spring is trying to play
Peek-a-boo with me
But some clouds came along and it became black as night
(Hold up left hand for the clouds)
Then the rain began to sprinkle onto the ground
(wiggle fingers for the rain coming down)
And soon it was raining all over the town.
But when the clouds had passed on by (move both hands to one side)
A big beautiful rainbow stretched across the sky
(make a rainbow arc with your hands)
Warm, sunny days are near,
Flowers and bees, and birds in trees.
The days of spring are here.
He worked and he worked without a doubt. (Wiggle fingers)
Wrapping himself in a snug cocoon.(Wrap other hand around fingers)
Waiting and waiting, will it be soon? (hold fingers)
Look, he's coming out, my oh my! (raise arms in excitement)
For now he's become a beautiful butterfly (Cross thumbs and flap hands like wings)
The petals call the birds and bees, the flower has some petals
The flower has some leaves, the flower has some leaves.
The leaves will catch the rain and sun, the flower has some leaves.
The flower has a stem, the flower has a stem.
The stem will make it stand up tall, the flower has a stem.
The flower has some roots, the flower has some roots.
The roots will carry food and drink, the flower has some roots.
And windy was the weather-O,
W-I-N-D-Y, W-I-N-D-Y, W-I-N-D-Y,
And windy was the weather. Continue
Popcorn, popping on the apricot tree.
Spring has brought me such a nice surprise
Popcorn popping right before my eyes
I can take a handful and make a treat
A popcorn ball that smells so sweet
It wasn't really so, but it seemed to be
Popcorn popping on the apricot tree.
Next a rain cloud comes and waters all around (Use one hand to simulate rain)
Next the sun shines brightly, without a sound (use fingers like sun)
And in just a few days, a flower is found (open hand like flower)
He wiggled long, he wiggled short, he wiggled right at me.
I put him in a box and said Please don't go from me,
But when I looked again, I saw a butterfly not he.
Now I could never make a butterfly, even if I tried.
Cause only God in Heaven, can make a butterfly.
All the colors that we know, live up in the rainbow.
Red and orange, green and blue, shiny yellow, purple too.
Up where it's clear and bright
Let's all go fly a kite
Let's go fly a (pick a color) kite
Up where it's clear and bright
Let's go fly a (pick a color) kite
Rain on the tree,
Rain on the house top.
But not on me.
spun his cocoon and then (yawn) went to sleep (spin hands)
While he was sleeping he dreamt that he could fly (making flying motion)
When he woke up (loud, excited) he was a butterfly.
A -hunting we will go
We'll catch a (insert any insect here)
and put it in a box(loudly)
and then we'll let it go!
Spun his cocoon and slept so quietly,
All through the winter he didn't make a sound,
He dreamt of his new life when he'd be flying all around.
While he was sleeping the snow did gently fall,
Winter came and went, then her heard the robin's call,
Come on Mr. Butterfly, out of your cocoon
Spread your wings and fly for me, while I sing my tune.
I can sing a rainbow.. . I Sing a rainbow... and so can you.
Red, and Yellow and Pink and Green, Purple and Orange and Blue
I Can Dance A Rainbow... I Can Dance A Rainbow... and so can you
In the ground, in the ground,
Water them and they grow,
Water them and they grow,
All around, all around.
Out comes the yellow sun, big and round (Put arms above head like sun)
Down come the raindrops soft and slowly (dancing fingers)
Up comes the flower grow, grow, grow (jump as flower emerges)
Four caterpillars, five caterpillars eating all the day.
One cocoon, two cocoons three cocoons today.
Four cocoons, five cocoons sleeping all the day.
One butterfly, two butterflies three butterflies today.
Four butterflies, five butterflies, flying, flying away.
I have but just one wish, to reach and touch the sun
My little leaves are fragile, my stem is very new
My roots can barely hold me up, but you can help me through.
I need only a few things, to keep me alive and well
Some water, love and sunshine, Then time will surely tell.
If my leaves look kind of droopy, something to drink will do the trick
And feed me a little fertilizer, to prevent me from getting sick.
This pot I live in now is a temporary hold;
I'll need to be replanted, as I will soon grow old.
The hardest thing to do my friend is to sit and watch and wait
For the wonderful surprise I'll bring, Please be patient and have faith
For your effort, love and support will all be over soon;
Visit me in a month or two and I'll reward you with a bloom.
But please don't cut me down I can surprise you once again,
Let me finish my flower and seed and next year, I'll be back my friend.
Plant a little garden, Plant seeds in a row
Water them and weed them through all the summer heat
And then you'll have some flowers or vegetables to eat.
Spun her little chrysalis and then fell fast asleep.
While she was sleeping, she dreamed that she could fly.
And later when she woke up, she was a butterfly.
The petals call the birds and bees, the flower has some petals
The flower has some leaves, the flower has some leaves.
The leaves will catch the rain and sun, the flower has some leaves.
The flower has a stem, the flower has a stem.
The stem will make it stand up tall, the flower has a stem.
The flower has some roots, the flower has some roots.
The roots will carry food and drink, the flower has some roots.
They just do not know where to go (Wiggle fingers.)
But when someone comes to spray (pretend to spray water)
They will be off on their way (wiggle fingers away.)
In the sea are seven seals. (Hold up three finger and four fingers.)
Swimming and splashing are some of their skills. (Pretend to swim.)
Soon the seals are surprised (Throw hand up as surprised.)
By a fish thats twice their size. (Hold arms wide)
Swim, little seals, as swiftly as you ca (Pretend to swim fast.)
Or there may be only six in your clan (Hold up three fingers on each hand)
Buzzing in bushes and buzzing in trees
Buzzing around, wherever they please
There's nothing so sweet
As sweet as a honey bee.
Out comes the yellow sun, big and round.
Down come the raindrops soft and slowly
Up comes the flower grow, grow, grow!
Planting Flowers (Sung to: Ferez Jacques)
Planting flowers, Planting flowers,
In the ground, In the ground,
Water them and they grow,
Water them and they grow,
All around, All around.
Tap with tiny feet (tap feet)
The seeds will awaken (pretend to sleep and awake)
When they hear our beat (cup hand over ear)
Grow little seeds (sq
And see the cloudy sky (point to sky
I'm telling you now as a friend.
The reason their noses are shiny
Their powder puffs on the wrong end.
Wrong end, wrong end, their powder puffs on the wrong end.
