Every month the song/dance/activity will change. Many of the songs will be from my Recordings. Please print the page and do the activity with your child. Teachers may print the page to use with their classes. If you have questions, Contact Me.
Listen to the whole song on Tiny Tunes or hear it here:
Spring has sprung, and we can sing about it and act it out! This simple song, to the tune of "I'm a Little Teapot" helps children understand the process of germination in 4 lines! Be sure to give them a visual – draw a picture, make a felt board (below), or get a small pot, some soil, a seed – and watch your child grow as they watch the plant emerge.
Lyrics: | I'm a little seed in the dark, dark ground Spoken: What kind of plant did you grow into? (repeat song again) |
Movements: | Line 1: Curl up on the floor on your knees, tuck arms in |
Age Range: 1.5 – 5 years old

Make a "Little Seed" feltboard
Cut the shapes below out of felt and put on a felt board, or cut them out of construction paper to paste on a paper. Glob of brown dirt. Small black seed. Green stem. Yellow circle for sun. White or light blue raindrops. Flower of your choice!
