Spring Songs

Spring Is Here (to the tune of "Jingle Bells")
Spring is here! Spring is here!
Winter's gone away.
When the sun is shining bright,
Outside we run and play -- Yay!

Spring is here! Spring is here!
Let's all give a cheer.
Seeds sprout up, their roots go down,
And green leaves pierce the ground.

It Is Spring Time (to the tune of "Are You Sleeping?")
It is spring time.
It is spring time.
Winter's gone! 
Winter's gone!
Next it will be summer.
Next it will be summer.
It won't be long.
It won't be long.

I'm a Little Flower Bulb (to the tune of "I'm a Little Teapot")
I'm a little flower bulb, small and brown,
Buried in the cool, dark ground.
As the days grow warmer, watch and see,
I'll sprout through the earth - Yippee!

Growing, growing, growing every day,
Sprouting leaves that gently sway,
Next comes a bud and then a flower --
A face to shine 'neath sun and showers.

Oh, When the Trees All Sprout New Leaves (to the tune of "Oh, When the Saints Go Marching In")
Oh, when the trees all sprout new leaves,
Oh, when the trees all sprout new leaves,
We know it must be springtime
When the trees all sprout new leaves.

Oh, when brown earth gives way to green,
Oh, when brown earth gives way to green,
We know it must be springtime
When brown earth gives way to green.

Oh, when the flowers begin to bloom,
Oh, when the flowers begin to bloom,
We know it must be springtime
When the flowers begin to bloom.

Plant A Garden (to the tune of "Oh My Darling Clementine")
Plant a garden, plant a garden,
Plant a garden in the spring.
Dig a hole and add some seeds.
Cover them up gently now, please.

They need lots and lots of sunshine,
A little wind, a little rain.
Soon those little seeds will sprout --
You'll see green leaves, have no doubt.

Day by day, they'll grow taller,
And their roots will deeper go.
Big strong plants will bud and bloom,
Yielding veggies to consume.

Roots and Stem and Leaves and Flower (to the tune of "Head and Shoulders, Knees and Toes")
Roots and stem and leaves and flower, leaves and flower,
Roots and stem and leaves and flower, leaves and flower,
Roots and stem and leaves and flower --
These are the parts of a plant.

Roots - point to feet
Stem - stand up straight with hands by sides
Leaves - raise arms
Flower - cup hands around face

See the Brown Earth Turning Green (to the tune of "London Bridge")
See the brown earth turning green,
Turning green, turning green.
See the brown earth turning green --
It is spring time!

Feel the weather getting warmer,
Getting warmer, getting warmer.
Feel the weather getting warmer --
It is spring time!

Watch the trees bud with new leaves,
With new leaves, with new leaves.
Watch the trees bud with new leaves --
It is spring time.

Spy the birds building their nests,
Building their nests, building their nests.
Spy the birds building their nests --
It is spring time!

What Season Is This? (to the tune of "If You're Happy and You Know It")
What season is this? Do you know?
     {shouted} It is spring!
What season is this? Do you know?
     {shouted} It is spring!
Trees put on new leaves.
Flowers wave in the breeze.
What season is this? Do you know?
     {shouted} It is spring

Five Little Rabbits
Five little rabbits went hop, hop, hop.
Children called out, “Stop, stop, stop!”

The first rabbit said, “Run, run, run!”
The second rabbit laughed, “Fun, fun, fun!”

The third rabbit’s foot went thump, thump, thump.
The fourth rabbit went jump, jump, jump.

The fifth rabbit came in creep, creep, creep.
The five rabbits yawned and went to sleep, sleep, sleep

Little Duck Song (to the tune to London Bridge)
Little ducklings go
quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack,
quack,quack, quack

Little ducklings go
quack, quack, quack
In the springtime.

Little lambs go baa, baa, baa...
Little piglets go oink, oink, oink...

 make up other verses with other baby animal sounds.

Spring Is Here (to the tune of "Are You Sleeping")
I see robins, 
I see bird's nests, 
Butterflies too, 
flowers too. 
Everything is growing, 
The wind is gently blowing. 
Spring is here, spring is here.

Planting Seeds
First you take the seed and you plant it in the ground (pretend to plant seeds in hand) 
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)

The Ants Go Marching
The ants go marching one by one. . Hoorah, hoorah
The ants go marching one by one. . Hoorah, hoorah
The ants go marching one by one
The little one stops to have some fun
And they all go marching
Down, to the ground
Boom, Boom, Boom

The ants go marching two by two . . . Hoorah, hoorah
The ants go marching two by two . . . Hoorah, hoorah
The ants go marching two by two
The little one stops to look at you
And they all go marching
Down, to the ground
Boom, Boom, Boom

The ants go marching three by three . . . Hoorah, hoorah
The ants go marching three by three . . . Hoorah, hoorah
The ants go marching three by three
The little one stops under a tree
And they all go marching
Down, to the ground
Boom, Boom, Boom

The ants go marching four by four . . . Hoorah, hoorah
The ants go marching four by four . . . Hoorah, hoorah
The ants go marching four by four
The little one stops to eat some more.
And they all go marching
Down to the ground
Boom Boom Boom

The ants go marching four by four . . . Hoorah, hoorah
The ants go marching four by four . . . Hoorah, hoorah
The ants go marching four by four
The little one stops to see a bee hive
And they all go marching
Down to the ground
Boom Boom Boom

Nine Little Flowers
One little, two little, three little flowers,
Four little, five little, six little flowers,
Seven little, eight little, nine little flowers,
Peeping through the ground.

Give them rain and lots of sunshine,
Give them rain and lots of sunshine,
Give them rain and lots of sunshine,
So they'll grow up tall.

As they grow, they'll bud and bloom,
As they grow, they'll bud and bloom,
As they grow, they'll bud and bloom,
In the lovely springtime.

Spring Poem (By Sharon Siegelman)
Some days seem like winter, 
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
