Rhyme: Big Round Sun
Big round sun in the spring sky Sign for Sun
Waved to a cloud that was passing by Wave!
The little cloud laughed as it started to rain Sign for Rain
And out came the big round sun again. Sign for Sun

Flannel/Song: “Five Clean and Squeaky Pigs” (Tune: “Five Green and Speckled Frogs”)
Five pigs so squeaky clean
Cleanest you’ve ever seen
Wanted to go outside and play
Oink! Oink!
One jumped into the mud
Landed with a big THUD
Then there were four clean squeaky pigs.

Rhyme: Five Fat Peas
Five fat peas in a pea pod pressed (hold hands in a fist)
One grew, two grew, so did the rest. (Put fingers up one by one.)
They grew and they grew and did not stop,
Until one day that pea pod POPPED! (clap hands together)
Song: “Hop, Hop, Hop Along” (Tune: “Row Your Boat”)
Hop, hop, hop along (hop)
Or bounce on someone’s knee (bounce)
Higher and higher and higher and higher (lift)
Bunny hop with me! (hop)
