The itsy bitsy lady bug
                     When the rain begins to fall,
climbed up a rose one day.                   Oh when the rain begins to fall.
Down came the rain and                       The plants will grow real tall,
the lady bug crawled away.                   When the rain begins to fall.
Out came the sun and

the ladybug came to stay.               (When that water really rains down,
"Look at all the aphids,                   Oh, when that water really rains down.
I found to eat today!                       The worms come up so they don't drown.
 
Rose Luukhomen                           When that water really rains down.)

"Twinkle, Twinkle"                                          
Flowers are my favorite thing,
Crystals, crystals in the snow,                I know that they grow in the spring.
Floating down to my toes.                     They have leaves and petals too.
Salt and sugar, they are too.                  They have roots and sweet perfume.
Each one is different and new.               Flowers are my favorite thing,
Crystals, crystals in the snow,                I know that they grow in the spring.
Floating down to my toes.

"Three Blind Mice"                                       
What's green and hops around?
Push and pull,                                        Eats flies and slurps them down?
Push and pull.                                        F,R,O,G,S, its true.
See what magnets do?                            How are frogs like you?
See what magnets do?                            
  Melissa Baumgardner
Magnets pull together or push apart,
Just hold a magnet - you'll find you are smart.
Push and pull.                                              
Push and pull.

Oil and water,
"Sing a Song of Sixpence"                                        
Just won't mix,
Sing a song of flowers,                              Just won't mix.
They start from little seeds.                        Blend them in the blender,
Take a pot and plant them,                         Heat them in the microwave,
In the dirt, please.                                      They still won't mix.
Sprinkle them with water,                           They still won't mix.
Then place them in the sun.
Isn't planting flowers
lots and lots of fun.

Japanese beele why do you stay?
Lightning in the Sky                                               Japanese Beetle go away!
"Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" 
Lightning, lightning in the sky,                                 You were brought over for control, 
How you make me wonder why                               You didn't know that was your role.
You are loud and oh so bright                                   You've multiplied more than they knew,
How you light the sky at night?                                  Japanese Beetle I'm so tired of you! 
Lightning, lightning in the sky,

How you make me wonder why.
