Bugs
(Sung to tune "Frere Jacques")
Big bugs, small bugs, big bugs, small
bugs,
See them crawl, see them crawl.
Creepy, creepy, crawling, never, never
falling
Bugs, bugs, bugs. Bugs, bugs, bugs.
Thin bugs, fat bugs, thin bugs, fat bugs
See them crawl, on the wall.
Creepy, creepy, crawling, never, never
falling
Bugs, bugs, bugs. Bugs, bugs, bugs.
Insects and Spiders
(Sung to tune "The Wheels on the Bus")
The bugs in the air fly up and down,
up and down, up and down.
The bugs in the air fly up and down
all through the day.
Other verses:
The spiders on the bush spin a web.
The crickets in the field hop up and
down.
The bees in their hive go buzz, buzz,
buzz.
Ants
Once I saw an ant hill, with no ants
about.
So I said, "Little ants, won't you please
come out?"
Then as if they heard my call,
one, two, three, four, five came out.
And that was all!
Here is a Beehive
Here is the beehive,
where are the bees?
(clench fist and bring out fingers
quickly one by one)
Hidden away were nobody sees
Watch and you will see them come out
of their hives,
One, two, three, four, five,
Buzz, buzz, buzz.
The Itsy Bitsy Spider
The itsy, bitsy spider, climbed up the
water spout.
Down came the rain and washed the
spider out.
Out came the sun and dried up all the
rain,
So the itsy, bitsy spider went up the
spout again.
Bees
A swarm of bees in May,
Is worth a load of hay.
A swarm of bees in June,
Is worth a silver spoon.
A swarm of bees in July,
Isn't worth a fly.
