April showers bring...  MAY FLOWERS!

Split!  Splat! by Amy Gibson
When a little girl ventures out into a spring rain with her dog, singing a simple, plain, pitter-patter rain song, her neighbors soon join her for some muddy-day fun.



"Itsy-Bitsy Spider" Action Song:

The itsy-bitsy spider went up the water spout
Down came the rain and washed the spider out
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
And the itsy-bitsy spider went up the spout again

Big Rain Coming by Katrina Germein
Though everyone eagerly awaits the rain, it is slow in coming.





"Rain is Falling" Action Rhyme:

The rain is falling down, splat
The rain is falling down, splat
Pitter, patter, pitter, patter
Rain is falling down, splat

The sun is peeking out, peek-a-boo
The sun is peeking out, peek-a-boo
Peeking here, peeking there
The sun is peeking out, peek-a-boo

Planting a Rainbow by Lois Ehlert
A mother and child plant a rainbow of flowers in the family garden.





Cupcake liners, check.
Buttons and craft sticks, check.
Blue and green construction paper, check.
Drumroll, please...
FLOWERS BLOOM!
