Preschool Song
Cam the caterpillar, green and small,
Hatched out one day, ready to crawl!
A hungry tummy, a world to see,
Adventures waited, wild and free.
Breakfast first, a hungry tummy,
Lots to eat, oh so yummy!
Chirped a robin, "Here's a treat,
An apple so juicy, round and sweet."
A hopping rabbit, munching fast,
"Cabbage grows, a leafy blast!"
Earthworms wiggled, in the ground,
"We make soil healthy, all around!”
Buzz the bee showed sunflowers bright,
Helping plants grow day and night,
Spreading pollen as he flew.
Nature’s balance, tried and true.
Mice with strawberries, giggling glee,
Groundhogs with broccoli, happy as can be.
A wise raccoon, a watermelon treat,
But too much food is hard to eat!
Cam ate and ate, with happy sighs, But oh dear, too much, what a surprise! A cozy cocoon, a place to rest, Transforming dreams inside his nest.
Weeks went by, a change so bright,
Cam the butterfly took to flight!
Colors sparkling, wings so bold,
A happy story, sweetly told.
