PLANT SONGS & POEMS
Seed Cycle
(Sing to the tune of "The Farmer in the Dell")The farmer sows his seeds.
The farmer sows his seeds.
Hi-ho the dairy-o,
The farmer sows his seeds.
Other verses:
The wind begins to blow...
The rain begins to fall...
The clouds blow away...
The sun begins to shine...
The seeds begin to sprout...
The plants grow big and tall...
The farmer cuts his corn...
He puts it in his barn...
And now the harvest is done!
This is the Way We Rake the Garden ![]()
(Sing to the tune of "Here we go round the Mulberry Bush")This is the way we rake the garden, rake the garden, rake the garden.

This is the way we plant the seeds so early in the morning.
(bend and plant seeds)This is the way the rain comes down, rain comes down, rain comes down.
This is the way rain comes down so early in the morning.
(wiggle fingers down)This is the way we hoe the weeds, we hoe the weeds, we hoe the weeds.
This is the way we hoe the weeds so early in the morning.

This is the way the garden grows so early in the morning.
(squat and slowly raise up with hands over head)This is the way we pick the vegetables, pick the vegetables, pick the vegetables.

This is the way we eat the harvest so early in the morning.

Plants ![]()
Plants need care to help them grow
(make fist with hand)
Just like boys and girls you know
Good soil, water, sunshine bright.
Then watch them pop overnight.
(extend fingers out and up)
Sing a Song of Flowers ![]()
(Sung to: "Sing a Song of Sixpence")Sing a song of flowers, flowers all around.
Flowers that are growing, growing in the ground
Flowers of each color make a pretty view.
Red and orange and yellow.
And blue and purple, too.
I'll Plant A Little Seed ![]()
(Sung to: "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!
Houses ![]()
Here is a nest for a robin.
(cup both hands together)
Here is a hive for a bee.
(fist together)
Here is a hole for the bunny,
(finger and thumb make circle)
And here is a house for me!
(fingertips together to make a roof)
