March Rhymes and Songs

This month we will be singing songs about spring and growth. We will also be adding to our collection of number songs and learning some new songs for Easter.

The Gardener Plants the Seeds

(To the tune of ‘The farmer wants a wife’)

The gardener plants the seeds,
The gardener plants the seeds,
Hi Ho the Cherry O!
The gardener plants the seeds.
 

Repeat with: The rain begins to fall
-The sun begins to shine
-The plants begin to grow
-The buds open up
-The flowers smile at me

Spring Song

(Tune: Frere Jacques)

It is spring time

It is spring time

Winter's gone

Winter's gone

Summer time will come soon

Summer time will come soon

It won't be long

It won't be long.

I’ll Plant a Little Seed

(To the tune of 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!

5 Green Peas

Five green peas in a pea pod pressed.
One grew, two grew and so did all the rest.
They grew and grew and did not stop
Until one day the pod went POP!

Daffodil Rhyme

One little daffodil had nothing much to do,
Out popped another one, then there were two.
Two little daffodils were smiling at a bee,
Out popped another one, then there were three.
Three little daffodils were growing by the door,
Out popped another one, then there were four.
Four little daffodils were glad to be alive,
Out popped another one, then there were five.
Five little daffodils were wearing golden crowns,
They danced in the breeze in green satin gowns.

Little Peter Rabbit

Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose
Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose
Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose
So he flipped it and he flopped it
And the fly flew away.

Powder puffs and curly whiskers
Powder puffs and curly whiskers
Powder puffs and curly whiskers
So he flipped it and he flopped it
And the fly flew away.

Chick Chick Chick Chick Chicken

Chick chick chick chick chicken,

Lay a little egg for me.

Chick chick chick chick chicken

I want one for my tea.

I haven’t had an egg since breakfast,

And now it’s half past three.

So, chick chick chick chick chicken

Lay a little egg, lay a little egg,

Lay a little egg for me.

Mary Mary Quite Contrary

Mary Mary quite contrary

How does your garden grow?

With silver bells and cockle shells

And pretty maids all in a row.

5 Little Men in a Flying Saucer

Five little men in a flying saucer,
Flew round the earth one day.
They looked left and right,
But they didn't like the sight,
So one man flew away,

Zoom!

5 Currant Buns

5 currant buns in a Baker’s shop,

Round and fat with a cherry on the top.

Along came ____ with a penny one day,

Bought a currant bun and took it away.

Count down with 4,3,2,1.

Five Little Speckled Frogs

Five little speckled frogs
Sat on a speckled log
Eating some most delicious bugs.
Yum yum!

One jumped into the pool,
where it was nice and cool.
Then there were four green speckled frogs,
Glug, glug.

(Repeat with 4,3,2,1)
