How I wonder what you are…<\/p>\n

Itsy Bitsy Spider<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The itsy bitsy spider climed up the water spout<\/p>\n

Down came the rain and washed the spider out<\/p>\n

Out came the sun and dried up all the rain<\/p>\n

My head my shoulders my knees my toes (repeat 3x,\u00a0go faster each\u00a0time)<\/p>\n

Let’s all join hands together! (clap)<\/p>\n

(Sung to tune of “Do You Know the Muffin Man?”\u00a0 The animals\/bugs are hidden behind colorful flannel clouds-children have to guess where each animal\/bug is…)<\/p>\n

A\u00a0 lady bug, a lady bug?<\/p>\n

Can we find a lady bug?<\/p>\n

We want to say hello!<\/p>\n

(…green frog, gray squirrel, yellow duck, soft kitty…)<\/p>\n
