Spring Song

Put up your umbrella

When the rain comes down.

Wear a happy smile

And wipe away a frown.

Splash in all the puddles

And do a little dance.

Rain is just the thing we need

For new spring plants.

Fun in the Rain

(Tune: Deck the Halls)

Do you hear the pitter patter? Hear the little raindrops falling down.

Can you see the splashing water? All the little raindrops on the ground.

Time to get our big umbrellas

We don't want to get our hair all wet.

If you wear your boots and raincoat,

We will go outside and splash a bit!

A Song of Springtime

(Tune: "Did You Ever See a Lassie")

Come sing a song of springtime,

Of springtime, of springtime.

Come sing a song of springtime,

The warm days are here.

With warm breezes blowing

And flowers all growing

Come sing a song of springtime

The warm days are here.

Dandelions

(Tune: "Mary Had A Little Lamb")

Once there was a dandy lady, Dandy lady, dandy lady,

Once there was a dandy lady, Who loved to dance, they say.

She had beautiful hair of gold,........

.......... And loved to dance all day.

As time passed by and she grew old,........

......... Her hair all turned to grey.

Now when the dandy lady dances,........

.........Her hair all blows away.

Springtime Garden

(Tune: "The Mulberry Bush")

What a lovely time of year,

Time of year, time of year.

What a lovely time of year

In our springtime garden.

See the flowers swing and sway,

Swing and sway, swing and sway.

See the flowers swing and sway

In our springtime garden.

Flower Garden

(Tune: "The Farmer In The Dell")

The farmer plants the seeds

The farmer plants the seeds

Hi, Ho and Cherry O

The farmer plants the seeds

The rain begins to fall....

The sun begins to shine....

The plants begin to grow.....

The buds all open up.....

The flowers smile at me......

Windmill

(Tune: "Did You Ever See A Lassie")

Oh, I wish I were a windmill, a windmill, a windmill,

Oh, I wish I were a windmill, I know what I'd do;

I'd swing my arms this way, I'd swing my arms that way.

Oh, I wish I were a windmill, I know what I'd do.

I'll Plant A Little Seed

(Tune: "I'm A Little Teapot")

I'll plant a little seed in the dark, dark ground.

Out comes the yellow sun, big and round.

Down comes the cool rain, soft and slow.

Up comes the little seed, grow, grow, grow!

Spring

(Tune: "London Bridge")

Leaves are growing on the trees,on the trees,on the trees

Leaves are growing on the trees, It is springtime.

All the grass is turning green.......

See the birdies build their nest......

Watch the flowers start to grow......

Little Ducks Song

(Tune: "London Bridge")

Little ducks go quack, quack, quack

Quack, quack, quack,

Quack, quack, quack -

Little ducks go quack quack quack

In the springtime.

 

2. Little lambs go baa, baa, baa

3. Etc.

Egg Hunt Song

(Tune: "Paw Paw Patch")

Hunting for eggs;

Put 'em in my basket.

Hunting for eggs;

Put 'em in my basket.

Hunting for eggs;

Put 'em in my basket.

Now my baskets full.

Dumping my eggs,

In the big basket.

Dumping my eggs,

In the big basket.

Dumping my eggs.

in the big basket;

We found all the eggs!

I See The Wind...

(Tune: "Hush, Little Baby")

I see the wind when the leaves dance by,

I see the wind when the clothes wave "Hi!"

I see the wind when the trees bend low,

I see the wind when the flags all blow.

I see the wind when the kites fly high,

I see the wind when the clouds float by.

I see the wind when the it blows my hair,

I see the wind most everywhere.

Blow, Blow,Blow the Wind...

(Tune: "Row, Row, Row Your Boat")

Blow, blow, blow the wind

Gently through the trees.

Blow, and blow, and blow, and blow.

How I like a breeze!

 

Blow, blow, blow the clouds,

Blow them through the sky.

Blow, and blow, and blow, and blow.

Watch the clouds roll by!

Ladybugs Fly...

(Tune: "Three Blind Mice")

Fly, fly, fly.

Ladybugs fly..

Fly over here.

Fly over there.

They fly up high and they fly down low.

Around and around and around they go.

They fly fast, and they fly-fly slow.

Oh, ladybugs fly.

The Days Of Spring...

(Tune: "The Farmer In The Dell")

The days of spring are here.

Warm, sunny days are near.

Birds in trees, flowers and bees,

The days of spring are here.
