Music -May/June- 2008




Green Plants (Tune: Row, Row, Row Your Boat)

Grow, grow, grow your plants.

Grow with lots of care.

Carefully, carefully place your plants

Where they will get some air.


Grow, grow, grow your plants.

Growing can be fun.

Carefully, carefully place your plants

Where they will get some sun.



Plants (Tune: Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes)


Do you know the parts of plants, parts of plants?

Do you know the parts of plants, parts of plants?

All kinds of plants that grow and grow and grow.

Do you know the parts of plants, parts of plants?


The roots hold the plant in place, plant in place.

The roots hold the plant in place, plant in place.

The roots store food and water too.

The roots hold the plant in place, plant in place.


The stem moves water up the plant, up the plant.

The stem moves water up the plant, up the plant.

The stem brings water to the leaves.

The stem moves water up the plant, up the plant.


The leaves soak up the sun, soak up the sun.

The leaves soak up the sun, soak up the sun.

The sun helps the plant to grow and grow and grow.

The leaves soak up the sun, soak up the sun.



Way Down Yonder in the Garden Patch (Tune: Paw Paw Patch)

Where oh where is pretty little Molly?

Where oh where is pretty little Molly?

Where oh where is pretty little Molly?

Way down yonder in the garden patch.


Planting, planting, planting in the garden.

Planting, planting, planting in the garden.

Planting, planting, planting in the garden.

Way down yonder in the garden patch.

In the Springtime by K. Gage (Tune: London Bridge)

Little ducks go quack, quack, quack

quack, quack, quack

quack, quack, quack

Little ducks go quack, quack, quack

In the springtime!


(Children can change the song for
other animals:

lambs go baa, baa, baa

bunnies go hop, hop, hop

birds go tweet, tweet, tweet)




Springtime (Tune: Skip to my Lou)

Springtime, springtime

How do you do?

Springtime, springtime

How do you do?

Springtime, springtime

How do you do?

Flowers and sunshine are part of you.


Springtime colors everywhere

Springtime colors everywhere

Bright and cheerful colors too

Blossoms and buds and greenery too.


Springtime animals everywhere

Springtime animals everywhere

Birds and bees and butterflies too

Springtime, springtime, glad to see you.
