A Rain Song
(Tto the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little
Star)
Pitter, patter, drip, drip, drop
How I wish the rain would stop!
Will the sun come out today
So I can go out to play?
Pitter, patter, drip, drip, drop
How I wish the rain would stop


Bubbles
(sung to "Mary Had a Little Lamb")
Bubbles floating in the air,
in the air, in the air.
Bubbles floating in the air,
Pop, Pop, Wow!

Five Little Monkeys
Five little monkeys jumping on the bed,
One fell off
And bumped his head
Mama called the doctor
And the doctor said, "No more
monkeys jumping on the bed!"

Repeat for 4, 3, and 2 monkeys. Then:

One little monkey jumping on the bed
HE fell off
And bumped his head
Mama called the doctor
And the doctor said, "KEEP THOSE
MONKEYS OFF THAT BED!!!".

Very well I thank you,
Run away.
Run away.
