~ Days of the Week  ~
(tune of: Brother John)

Every week has seven days.
See how many you can say.
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
That's seven days.
 

~ First Comes  ~
by Victoria Smith
(tune of : Up on the Housetop)

First comes a butterfly that lays an egg,
Out comes a caterpillar with many legs.
Oh, see the caterpillar spin and spin,
A little chrysalis to sleep in.
Oh, oh, oh, wait and see,
Oh, oh, oh, wait and see,
Out of the chrysalis
My oh my!
Out comes a beautiful butterfly!

 
~ The Little Turtle ~
by Vachel Lindsay

There was a little turtle
Who lived in a box.
He swam in the puddles
And climbed on the rocks.
He snapped at the mosquito,
He snapped at the flea.
He snapped at the minnow,
And he snapped at me.
He caught the mosquito,
He caught the flea.
He caught the minnow,
But he didn't catch me
