This Old Earth

To the tune of "This Old Man"

This old earth
Needs our help
To stay fresh and clean and green
With a pick it up; pitch it in; and throw it in the can
This old earth needs a helping hand!

Solar System in Motion

The Earth turns around,
The Earth turns around.
Once a day, every day,
The Earth turns around.

The moon goes round the Earth,
The moon goes round the Earth.
Once a month, every month,
The moon goes round the Earth.

The Earth goes round the sun,
The Earth goes round the sun.
Once a year, every year,
The Earth goes round the sun.

Upside down, upside down
Waiting for the night Waiting for the night
Then fly around, Then fly around

See the Little Rabbit


See the little rabbit go, hop, hop, hop.
See her ears go flop, flop, flop.
See her eyes go blink, blink, blink.
See her nose goes twink, twink, twink.
See her white coat, so soft and furry.
See her run - away in a hurry!

5 Little Apples


Way up high, in an apple tree (raise hands over head)
Five little apples smiled at me (smile)
So I shook that tree as hard as I could (pretend to shake tree)
Down came an apple, Mmm, it was good (Rub tummy)

Repeat

Falling Leaves


Tune: "London Bridges Falling Down"
 
Pretty leaves are falling down, falling down, falling down.

Some are orange and some are brown, all over town.
Some are yellow and some are red, some are red, some are red.
Some are yellow and some are red, all over town.

Opposites Song


If I say ”stop,” you say … “go”
If I say “fast,” you say … “slow”
If I say “yes,” you say … “no”
If I say “above,” you say … “below”
If I say ”big,” you say … “small”
If I say “short,” you say … “tall”
If I say “spring,” you say … “fall”
If I say “none,” you say… “all”

We're Flying to the Moon

We’re walking on the moon,
We’re walking on the moon,
Hi ho away we go,
We’re walking on the moon.

We’re flying back to Earth,
We’re flying back to Earth,
Hi ho away we go,
We’re flying back to Earth.

We’re landing on the Earth,
We’re landing on the Earth,
Hi ho away we go,
We’re landing on the Earth.

I'm a Little Robot

I'm a little robot, short and strong.
Here are my handles, just turn me on.
When I get all warmed up, watch me go,
Sometimes fast and sometimes slow

The More We Get Together


The more we get together
Together, together
The more we get together
The happier we'll be
Cause your friends are my friends
And my friends are your friends
The more we get together
The happier we'll be

One fell off

Mama called the doctor and the doctor said,
"No more monkeys jumping on the bed!"

The Hokey Pokey


You put your left foot in
You put your left foot out
You put your left foot in
And you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey
And you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about!

Continue singing and pointing to additional body parts.

The buds all open up

Dragonfly Song

(Sung to: "Twinkle, Twinkle..")

Dragonfly, dragonfly, who am I?
I'm not a dragon or a fly.
I'm a bug with wings that shine.
Fluttering around in a curvy line.
I swoop down low or way up high,
But don't touch me, just let me fly!
