Copyright © 2016 Melody Tree House. All rights reserved. The Garden Song

Once there was a garden Where nothing grew It needed saving So what did we do?

We took some soil With lots of wiggly worms Some seeds Flowers bushes and trees And then we dug a pond

Now butterflies Flutter by on the breeze And birds Eat the berries and seeds And frogs swim in our pond

Our garden is a special place A truly magic wild life space

So we can care For our garden each day Sing songs With our friends as we play And watch what’s in the pond

I’m a grasshopper I leap around A grasshopper Bouncing up and down And I land with ease Cos I always bend my knees

You’re a grasshopper You leap around A grasshopper Bouncing up and down And you land with ease Cos you always bend your knees

We jump up high And we jump down low When we’re ready off we go Happily we hop along As we sing our song

We’re grasshoppers We leap around We’re grasshoppers Bouncing up and down And we land with ease Cos we always bend our knees

Pretend you’re hedgehogs playing under a tree Curl up small as small as can be Now as you slowly roll across the floor You’ll go around and round and round

You’re going to rock and roll it As you tumble you control it And you’ll summersault around And around and around - As you tumble around

Pretend you’re hedgehogs playing on the ground Curl up tight so you’re small and round You get that tumbling feeling deep inside As you go round and round and round

You’re going to rock and roll it As you tumble you control it As you’ll summersault around And around and around - Around and around Around and around - Around and around Around and around - You’ll come tumbling down

As we’re tumbling As we’re tumbling As we’re tumbling As we’re tumbling down

Something’s crawling in the flowers What could it be? I hope it’s not a scary monster Out to frighten me Oh it’s just a ladybird Crawling on

Copyright © 2016 Melody Tree House. All rights reserved. Bugs

We are tiny little bugs Living in a compost heap Slimy little bugs Hungry for some leaves to eat

When you tidy up your garden each day And you throw the dead leaves away You nose will let you know that we’re there By the smelly pong drifting in the air

We are tiny little bugs Living in a compost heap Slimy little bugs Hungry for some leaves to eat

Copyright © 2016 Melody Tree House. All rights reserved. Dragonflies

We’re Dragonflies Darting around as we play our games Chasing each other from here to there Dashing and dancing most everywhere In the air Dragonflies Dance Dragonfly Dance Dragonfly

Now let’s hover here still as can be Can you stay as still as me

Dragonflies Darting around as we play our games Chasing each other from here to there Dashing and dancing most everywhere In the air Dragonflies Dance Dragonfly Dance Dragonfly Dance Dragonfly

Copyright © 2016 Melody Tree House. All rights reserved. What Could It Be? (Field Mouse)

Something’s moving in the tree stump What could it be? I hope it’s not a scary monster Out to frighten me Oh it’s just a tiny field mouse Nibbling on a seed

Copyright © 2016 Melody Tree House. All rights reserved. Busy Bees

Busy Bees live together They stay friends forever Their home is a world of harmony Being there for each other They care for one another Busy Bees

Busy Bees love sunny weather They work well together They live in a great big family All day long they are buzzing With their wings that are humming Busy Bees

Busy buzzing here and there Whizzing everywhere A busy day for everyone Watch them bouncing on the breeze With pollen on their knees See them having fun

Busy Bees work for hours Buzzing in and out of flowers Making honey that’s good for you and me In their hive they’re so busy It’s a wonder they’re not dizzy Busy Bees Busy Bees Busy Bees

Suzie the spider was spinning her silken thread Weaving it back and forth to make her shiny web First she went round and round Then she went side to side Suzie - trace her thread with me

Suzie climbed up Then she slid down her thread Working all day Working all night Suzie the Spider built a brand new web

Suzie the spider lives next to the garden shed Watching and waiting sits in her silver web First she looks to the left Then she looks to the right Suzie - What’s for dinner tonight?

Something’s rustling in the bushes What could it be? I hope it’s not a scary monster Out to frighten me Oh it’s just a furry rabbit Peeking out at me

Copyright © 2016 Melody Tree House. All rights reserved. Ladybird

Hey Little Ladybird Can you teach me how? To count from one up to ten Oh please can you teach me now?

One two three four five Six seven eight nine ten From one to ten Ladybird I am counting on you

One two three four five Six seven eight nine ten From one to ten Ladybird I am counting on you From one to ten Ladybird I am counting on you

Copyright © 2016 Melody Tree House. All rights reserved. Sunshine & Rain

Rain falls from the heavens Helping the plants to grow A miracle of nature Is in every seed we sow

Sun shines on the garden Helping the plants to grow A miracle of nature Is in every seed we sow

We love the sun We love the rain Pouring down our window pane We love the rain We love the sun Shining down on everyone

Rain is falling from the clouds Giving life to us Sun is shining way up high Bringing life to earth

We love the sun We love the rain Pouring down our window pane We love the rain We love the sun Shining down on everyone

Rain falls from the heavens Helping the plants to grow

Copyright © 2016 Melody Tree House. All rights reserved. What Could It Be? (Frog)

Something’s splashing in the pond What could it be? I hope it’s not a scary monster Out to frighten me Oh it’s just a little frog Hopping happily

Copyright © 2016 Melody Tree House. All rights reserved. Birds

Up in the sky birds are flying everywhere High in the clouds see them soaring in the air They perch upon the rooftops They gather on the lawn They love to sing together every dawn

Flying free as can be Like the wind that blows Flying free you can see Birds just come and go Free to fly everywhere

Copyright © 2016 Melody Tree House. All rights reserved. The Log Pile

A messy tangled log pile’s the perfect place to hide. For me and all my creepy friends that live there safe inside We’ll wriggle, squiggle, creep and crawl and eat all we can chew And when somebody passes by we’ll all jump out and shout. BOO!
