INSECT AND  CRITTERS THEME

 SONGS AND POEMS
 

The insect song
Tune: Twinkle , Twinkle Little Star

Lady bugs and butterflies
Buzzings bees up in the sky
                               Tinny tiny little ants
                                 Crawling up and down the plants
                                  Many insects can be found in the sky and
                                    On the ground.

Tune: Brilla, brilla la estrellita en Español

Los Insectos

Mariquitas, mariposas y
Abejas revoltosas
Pequeñitas hormiguitas
Van y vienen por las plantas
Pueden ver muchos insectos
En el cielo o en el suelo.

 

Five Little bees (Finger play)

One Little bee blew and flew
He met a friend, and that made two
Two little bees, busy as could be
Along came another and that made three
Three little bees, wanted one more
Found one soon and that made four
Four little bees, going to the hive
Spied their little brother, and that made five
Five little bees working every hour
Buzz away, bees, and find another flower.

Bb for Bee

Bigety, bugety, bug
A bee flew over the rug
Bigety, bugety eh
A bee  flew over me
Bigety, bugety boo
A bee flew over you

 

Ladybug, ladybug fly 

Flew away home,
Your house is on fire
And your children all gone;
All except one
And that’s little Ann
And she has crept under
The warming pan


Little Black Bug
Poem by Margaret Wise Brown.

Little black bug,
Little black bug
Whre have you been?
I’ve been under the rug
Said little black bug.
Bug-ug-ug-ug
Little green fly
Little green fly
Whre have you been?
I’ve been way up high
Said little green fly
Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Slowly, slowly  Action Poem
Slowly, slowly, very slowly
goes the garden snail
slowly, slowly, very slowly
Up the garden trail
quickly, quickly, very quickly
goes the little mouse
quickly, quickly very quickly
to his little house.

I love bugs
Buttefly, butterfly, lady bug
spider, spider,  ants
buttefly, butterfly, lady bug
spider, spider, ants

Baby Bumblebee
http://youtu.be/l4AobiW37WM
I’m bringing home a baby bumblebee,
Won’t my mommy be so proud of me
(cup hand together as if holding a bee)
I’m bring home a baby bumblebee, Ouch! It stung me!
(shake hands as if just stung)
I’m squishing up the baby bumblebee,
Won’t my mommy be so proud of me
(squish the bee between palms of hands)
I’m squishing up a baby bumblebee,
Ooh! It’s yucky!
(open hands and look)
I’m wiping off the baby bumblebee,
Won’t my mommey be so proud of me
(wipe hands off on shirt)
I’m wiping off the baby bumblebee,
Now my mommy won’t be mad at me!
(holds hands up to show they are clean)
