Preschool songs about the four seasons inevitably teach young children about the different aspects of spring, summer, fall and winter. The following article provides spring songs with lyrics to enjoy with preschool children in any early childhood environment. In addition, the spring felt pieces can be used while singing!
Spring Song: "My Eyes Can See It's Springtime"
This song incorporates so many aspects of spring while teaching children about their senses. It is sung to the tune of "Did You Ever See a Lassie" as well as "The More We Get Together" by Raffi.My eyes can see it's springtime, it's springtime, it's springtime
My eyes can see it's springtime, the grass is so green.
The green grass, the flowers,
The sunshine, the showers,
My eyes can see it's springtime, the grass is so green.
My ears can hear it's springtime, it's springtime, it's springtime
My ears can hear it's springtime, the birds sweetly sing.
The birds sing,, the bees buzz,
The lambs bleat, the frogs croak
My ears can hear it's springtime, the birds sweetly sing.
My body can feel it's springtime, it's springtime, it's springtime
My body can feel it's springtime, the air is so warm
The warm air, the breezes
No frost and no freezes
My body can feel it's springtime, the air is so warm.
Out in the Garden
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, buzzSee the little butterflies...flutter, flutter, flutter
For an extension to this song, children can act out the song! Works well for circle time.
