Out in the Garden: Felt Board Poem for May




This is a wonderful felt set to sing with the following song, to the tune of Down By the Station

Out in the garden in the month of May
See the pretty flowers standing in a row
See the little birds flying down to greet them
Tweet tweet tweet and off they go.

Sing the same words and replace with

See the little bees...buzz, buzz, buzz
See the little butterflies...flutter, flutter, flutter


For an extension to this song, children can act out the song! In addition, it works well for circle time transitions.

Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? was written and illustrated by Bill Martin Jr. and Eric Carle and published in 1967.  The book is designed to help toddlers associate colors and meanings to objects and has been enjoyed by readers around the world for years. Young children are so attracted to the  bright images and repetitive verse which allows them to quickly join in with the telling of the story. This classic book turns well into a felt board story!
