Songs

The Bell On The Cow (tune: The Wheels on the Bus)
The bell on the cow goes clang, clang clang,
Clang, clang,clang,
Clang,clang, clang,
The bell on the cow goes clang, clang, clang
All around the farm.

The tail on the cow goes swish, swish, swish...
All around the farm.

The eyes on the cow go blink, blink, blink...
All around the farm.

The voice on the cow goes moo, moo, moo...
All around the farm.

And an oink oink there
Here an oink there an oink
Everywhere an oink oink
Old MacDonald had a farm E I E I O!

Songs and Rhymes

Watermelon Song
(Tune: "Are You Sleeping?")

Watermelon, Watermelon,
[Make a circle with your arms.]
On the vine, On the vine,
[Curve hands and arms beside body.]
Sweet and red and juicy, Sweet and red and juicy,
[Rub your tummy.]
Please be mine! Please be mine!
[Palms together as though pleading.]
Watermelon, Watermelon,
[Make a circle with your arms.]
Thump, thump, thump,
Thump, thump, thump,
[Make a thumping movement with thumb and middle finger.]
I think you are ready- I think you are ready-
[Point, resting finger on your temple.]
Big and plump! Bug and plump!
[Make a circle with your arms.]

 

My Garden

This is my garden
[Extend on hand forward, palm up.]
I'll rake it with care,
[Make raking motion on palm with three fingers of other hand.]
And then some flower seeds
[Plant motion.]
I'll plant in there.
The sun will shine
[Make circle with hands.]
And the rain will fall
[Let fingers flutter down to lap.]
And my garden will blossom
[Cup hands together; extend upward slowly.]
And grow straight and tall.
