SINGING TImE
I wake up in the morning early, And always, the very first thing,I poke out my head, and I sit up in bed, And I sing, and I sing, and I sing.
ROBIN"S SONG
God made little Robin
In the days of spring. "Please," said little Robin, "When am I to sing?" God then spoke to Robin,"You must sing always, But your sweetest carolKeep for wintry days." God heard Robin singingSuch a welcome song, "Cheer up, little children;Summer won" t be long." God loves all the children,And it makes Him glad If they sing like RobinWhen the days are sad.

HAPPy AS A ROBIN
Happy as a robin, gentle as a dove;
That "s the kind of little child Every one will love.
THE PANCAKE
Mix a pancake, Stir a pancake,
Pop it in the pan. Fry the pancake, Toss the pancake,Catch it, if you can.
PANCAKE TUESDAy
Flip, flop; flip, flop! Pancake tossing time!
Toss them up and catch them quick And sing a pancake rhyme.
Flip! for William Henry!
Flop! for Mary Ann!
Toss them up and catch them quick; The pancake "s in the pan.
THE mILL
When the wind blows, Then the mill goes; When the wind drops, Then the mill stops.
A CHINESE NURSERy RHymE
He ran up the candle stick The little mousie brown,To steal and eat tallow
And he couldn "t get down. He called for his grandma,But his grandma was in town;
So he doubled up into a wheel
And rolled himself down.
CHICKS
Yellow chicks, baby things, Bits of fluff and feather,Underneath their mother "s wing Cuddled up together!
Never mind the wind and rain, Cold or any other!
Everything is bright again Cuddled up to mother.
--Florence Hoatson
A LITTLE TINy BIRD
A little tiny bird
With sweet and cheerful song, God watches, thinks, and cares forAll the day long. A little helpless babe
That knows not right from wrong, God wakes a mother "s love forAll the day long. A little trustful child
Singing to God his song, God loves to hear the musicAll the day long.
--H. King Lewis
