TTO: yesh lanu tayish
A little garden seed is lying in it's bed (bend down like sleeping)
a warm spring sunshine is shining overhead (wave a imaginary sun)
down comes the raindrops dancing to and fro (make raindrops)
the little seed wakens and starts to grow (wake up)
and grow and grow (stretch and stretch till you're a big tree)


dont know what it goes to the tune of- its on one of our records- like a
mitzva tree or s/t
i'll plant a seed in the ground and water it with care
and after tu bshvat we'll see little buds growing there
and after tu bshvat we'll see little buds growing there.
The wisest man in the world can not make things grow
its only hashem, hashem we love who makes things grow we know
its only hashem, hashem echud who makes things grow and grow
TTTO: itzy bitzy spider...
The itzy bitzy seed was planted in the dirt-
Down came the rain and the sprout began to grow- Out came the sun & shown down on the seed- Now the itzy bitsy seed is a great big tree!
Fingerplay � Tune:  Itsy Bitsy Spider

A tiny little seed is planted in the ground
Hashem send the sun shining brightly down
Down comes the rain and as we all know
The little tiny seed begins to grow and grow and grow!

Two little oranges up in  a tree
Two little oranges smiling at me
I shook the tree as hard as I could
Down came the oranges
M,mm, they were good!

The almond tree is growing
The golden sun is glowing
Birds sing out in joyous glee
From every roof and every tree

Chorus:
Tu B'shvat, today is Tu B'shvat
Tu B'shvat the new year of the trees

Why do we like trees so much
They give us things to eat and touch
Name me some
Here they come   Oh....Chorus

Some trees shade us from the sun
Climbing them is lots of fun
Shade from sun
Lots of fun
Name me some
Here they come  Oh....Chorus


We get lots of fruit from trees
And their flowers feed the bees
Fruit from trees
Feed the bees
Shade from sun
Lots of fun
Here they come  Oh... Cho
