Planting Time
(sung to "Row, Row, Row Your Boat")
Dig, dig, dig the earth (make digging motion)
Then you plant your seeds (pretend to drop seeds)
A gentle rain (flutter fingers down)
And bright sunshine (circle arms above head)
Will help your flowers grow (put hands together, raise them and then part your palms)
Seeds Grow
(sung to "Farmer in the Dell")
the Gardner plants the seeds
the Gardner plants the seeds
Deep down inside the ground
The Gardner plants the seeds
The rain clouds give them water
The rain clouds give them water
Seeds need some water to drink
The rain clouds give them water
The sun gives heat and light
The sun gives heat and light
Seeds like it warm and bright
The sun gives heat and light
The Gardner pulls the weeds
The Gardner pulls the weeds
Seeds need the room to grow
The Gardner pulls the weeds
The seeds grow into flowers
The seeds grow into flowers
Flowers that are beautiful
The seeds grow into flowers
