Tune: "Frere Jacques"
Dance like snowflakes
Dance like snowflakes
In the air
In the air
Whirling, twirling, snowflakes
Whirling, twirling, snowflakes
Here and there
Here and there.
 

Tune: "Sailing, Sailing"
Snowflakes, snowflakes
Falling to the ground.
Each one rest so gently
They never make a sound.
Snowflakes, snowflakes
Are so pure and white.
The special thing about them is
No two are alike.
 

I'm a little snow person,
Short and fat -
Here are my buttons,
And here is my hat.
When the snow comes out,
I cannot stay.
Slowly I just melt away
 

(Another version)
I’m a little snowman round and fat,
Here is my broomstick, here is my hat.
When the sun comes out it’s time to say,
This is the end of me today.
Down, down, down, down - I'm a puddle!

A chubby little snowman
Had a carrot nose.
Along came a bunny,
And what do you suppose?
That hungry little bunny,
Looking for his lunch.
Ate that snowman's carrot nose,
Nibble, nibble, crunch!!



Five little snowmen standing in a row,
They each have a hat,
And a big red bow
When the sun shines
Where will they go?
(shrug shoulders)
They melt, melt, melt, melt, melt...
(sink down to floor)


Warm hands, warm
Do you know how?
If you want to warm your hands,
Warm your hands right now.  

(Discuss various ways to warm hands).
 

Where did you get that little red nose? (Point to nose)
Jack frost kissed it I suppose (kissing noise)
He kissed it once (hold up one finger)
And he kissed it twice (hold up 2 fingers)
Poor little nose is cold as ice! (Pretend to shiver)
 

Sung to: "Hokey Pokey"
You put your right mitten in,
you take your right mitten out,
you put your right mitten in
and you shake it all about.
You do the snowkey pokey
and you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about.
 
 
Way up high in the snowy tree
Lots of little snowflakes smiled at me.
I shook that tree as hard as I could.
Down came the snowflakes
Oh, were they cold!
 


Tune: Sing a Song of Sixpence
Sing a song of winter,
Frost is in the air,
Sing a song of winter,
Snowflakes everywhere,
Sing a song of winter,
Hear the sleighbells chime,
Can you think of anything,
As nice as  winter time?

 
 
Let's go walking in the snow/rain (walk)
Walking, walking, on tiptoe (tiptoe)
Lift your one foot way up high
(hop on one foot)
Then the other to keep it dry.
(hop on other foot)
All around the yard we skip,
Watch your step or you might slip!
(pretend to fall)
 


Tune: "Deck the Halls"
Do you hear the pitter-patter? Hear the raindrops falling down.
Can you see the splashing water? All the raindrops on the ground.
Time to get our big umbrellas we don't want to get our hair all wet.
If you wear your boots and raincoat, we will go outside and splash a bit!



Tune: Alouette
Hibernation, time for hibernation.
Hibernation, time to go to sleep.

In the winter where's the bear?
Sleeping in its log or lair.
Where's the bear? Log or lair. OH!

In the winter where's the frog?
Sleeping by a pond or log.
Where's the frog? Pond or log. OH!
 
In the winter where's the snake?
In the mud beneath the lake.
Where's the snake? Beneath the lake. OH!

In the winter where's the bat?
In a cave is where its at.
Where's the bat? In a cave. OH!


(Singing game - children sit in circle.) 
Grizzly bear, oh grizzly bear, oh sleeping in your cave - 
Please be very quiet, very very quiet,
Do not wake her (him), if you wake her (him)
She’ll (he’ll) be VERY MAD!!!  GRRRRR!  (Take turns to act it out)


If all the raindrops were lemon drops and gumdrops,
Oh, what a rain that would be.
Standing outside with our mouths open wide,
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
(Repeat first 2 lines).

If all the snowflakes were candy bars and milkshakes
Oh, what a snow that would be.
Standing outside with my mouth open wide,
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
(Repeat first 2 lines).
​

(Action rhyme)
Polar bears live in the Arctic,
They never get cold in a storm,
They swim in the icy cold water,
And their fur keeps them warm.

Polar bears have white coats,
And they walk quite slow.
It's hard to see just where they are...
Because they‘re as white as the snow.


Tune:"I'm a little teapot."
I'm a little penguin black and white,
I waddle to the left and I waddle to the right.
I cannot fly but I can swim,
So I waddle to the water and jump right in!


Tune: Jingle Bells)
Icy toes, chilly nose,

Wintertime is here.
My teeth chatter,
What's the matter?
Wintertime is here, Oh! (Repeat)


Build a snowman, 
starting with his feet.
Put on some more snow, and pack it nice and neat.
Next we make a round ball and place it on the top…
Then hope the sun doesn't get too hot!


(Five Little Monkeys)
Five little snowpeople riding on a sled,

One fell off and bumped its head. 
I called for Frosty and Frosty said: 
"No more snowpeople, riding on that sled!" 
Four little snowpeople... etc.


Way up high in the snowy tree,

Lots of little snowflakes were winking at me.
I shook that tree as hard as I could - 
Down came the snowflakes
They felt SO cold!!


Tune: Farmer in the Dell
The mittens on my hands,
The mittens on my hands,
Keep me warm all winter long,
The mittens on my hands.

More verses: The scarf around my neck
The boots are on my feet
The hat up on my head
The warmers on my ears

The coat I'm wearing now


Black and white penguin walking by,
Toes turned out and head held high.
With your long black coat
And your clean white vest,
Black and white penguin, you're looking your best!



(Traditional poem - have a conversation about animals that adapt in place during the cold weather)
The north wind does blow and we will have snow,

And what will poor robin do then?
He’ll sit in a barn, and keep himself warm,
With his head hidden under his wing, poor thing.
With his head hidden under his wing​.


Snowflakes, snowflakes, dance around!

Snowflakes, snowflakes, touch the ground!
Snowflakes, snowflakes, soft and white!
Snowflakes, snowflakes, snowball fight!
Snowflakes, snowflakes, in the air!
Snowflakes, snowflakes, EVERYWHERE!


Tune: Did You Ever See a Lassie?
Come sing a song of winter, of winter, of winter!

Come sign a song of winter, the cold days are here!
With winter winds blowing, and cold cheeks are glowing!
Come sing a song of winter, the cold days are here!


Do you like hot cocoa? 
I like it a lot.
I drink it when its cold outside,
It really hits the spot.
I like it with marshmallows
And with whipping cream, too.
Hot cocoa warms my tummy,
And here's some for YOU!
