Flannel Song: “Out in the Garden” by Jean Warren (Tune: “Down By the Station”)
Out in the garden early in the morning,
See the red tomatoes all in a row
See the happy farmer coming out to pick them
Pick, pick, pick, pick, off (he/she) goes.
Repeat with:
Red tomatoes
Yellow corn
Green peas
Orange carrots
Purple peppers
White onions
Brown potatoes
Song: “The Gardener Plants the Seeds” (Tune: “The Farmer in the Dell”)
The gardener plants the seeds.
The gardener plants the seeds.
High ho the derry oh,
The gardener plants the seeds.
Additional verses:
The rain falls on the ground…
The sun shines bright and warm…
The seeds begin to grow…
Flowers grow everywhere…
