Rhyme: Five GREEN Peas
Five GREEN 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: “If You’re Wearing…” (Tune: “Mary Had a Little Lamb”)
If you’re wearing red or pink, red or pink, red or pink
If you’re wearing red or pink, bounce up and down!
Additional verses:
Blue or green… clap your hands
Orange or yellow… touch your ears
Black or White… tickle your toes
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
