The Flower Song
author unknown The flower has some petals, the flower has some petals. The petals call the birds and bees, the flower has some petals The flower has some leaves, the flower has some leaves. The leaves will catch the rain and sun, the flower has some leaves. The flower has a stem, the flower has a stem. The stem will make it stand up tall, the flower has a stem. The flower has some roots, the flower has some roots. The roots will carry food and drink, the flower has some roots. A Seedlings Song
author unknown I am only now a seedling planted with hands so very young I have but just one wish, to reach and touch the sun My little leaves are fragile, my stem is very new My roots can barely hold me up, but you can help me through. I need only a few things, to keep me alive and well Some water, love and sunshine, Then time will surely tell. If my leaves look kind of droopy, something to drink will do the trick And feed me a little fertilizer, to prevent me from getting sick. This pot I live in now is a temporary hold; I'll need to be replanted, as I will soon grow old. The hardest thing to do my friend is to sit and watch and wait For the wonderful surprise I'll bring, Please be patient and have faith For your effort, love and support will all be over soon; Visit me in a month or two and I'll reward you with a bloom. But please don't cut me down I can surprise you once again, Let me finish my flower and seed and next year, I'll be back my friend. Flowers Blooming
Sing to tune of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" author unknown First you dig a little hole, Then you drop some seeds in there. Cover them with lots of dirt. Give them water, sun, and care. Now the seeds will start to sprout, Flowers blooming all about! The Gardening Song
author unknown First you take a shovel, a rake, and a hoe Plant a little garden, Plant seeds in a row Water them and weed them through all the summer heat And then you'll have some flowers or vegetables to eat. A Little Seed
~ by Mabel Watts A little seed for me to sow. (Pretend to hold a tiny seed.) A little earth to make it grow. (Stoop down and touch the ground.) A little hole, A little pat. (Pretend to dig a hole; plant seed; pat earth around seed.) A little wish, And that is that. (Touch index fingers to head; bring arms down and fold over chest.) A little sun, A little shower. (Make sun with hands; use fingers to create rain.) A little while, And then --- a flower! (Pretend to sleep; cup hands around face like flower.)
