Songs and Rhymes

Here's a cup
Here's a cup
Here's a cup
And here's a pot of tea.
Pour a cup,
Pour a cup,
And drink it up with me.

The children love this poem and like changing "tea" to another drink!

Colours (song)
Orange is a carrot
Yellow is a pear
Purple is a plum
Brown is a bear
Green is the tall grass
Blue is the sky
Black is a witch's hat
Red is cherry pie.

Yellow the Bracken (song)
Yellow the bracken
Golden the sheaves
Rosy the apples
Golden the leaves
Mist on the hillside
Clouds grey and white
Autumn good morning
Summer good night!

The cobbler (rhyme)
There was a cobbler on my street
mending shoes for little feet
With a bang and a bang
And a bang bang bang
With a bang bang bang
And a bang bang bang

Mending shoes all day long
mending shoes to make them strong
with a bang and a bang and a bang bang bang
with a bang and a bang and a bang bang bang!
