Theme: Spring
Opening Songs
First Book
First Notes of Spring, by Jessica Julekjian and Illustrated by Jennifer Bower
Finger Play: Itsy Bitsy Spider
“The itsy bitsy spider crawled up the water spout.
Down came the rain, and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun, and dried up all the rain,
and the itsy bitsy spider went up the spout again”
Song with Ukulele: Spider on the Floor
There’s a spider on the floor, on the floor
There’s a spider on the floor, on the floor
Who could ask for anymore, than a spider on the floor
There’s a spider on the floor, on the floor
Spider on my knee…goodness gracious me
Spider on my tummy….I think I want my mummy
Spider on my neck…I’m gonna be a wreck
Spider in my hair…this isn’t very fair
He jumped off!

Rain on the grass,
rain on the trees,
rain on the roof,
but not on me!
Sun on the grass,
Sun on the trees,
Sun on the roof,
but not on me!
Snow on the grass,
Snow on the trees,
Snow on the roof,
but not on me!
Leaves on the grass,
Leaves in the trees,
Leaves on the roof,
But not on me!
