Rainy Weather


Songs
Rain on my Umbrella 
  (Melodie: "Where is thumbkin")               

Drip, drip, drop, drop,
Drip, drip, drop, drop,
Drip, drip, drop,
Drip, drip, drop.
Rain on my Umbrella,
Rain on my umbrella,
Never stops.
Drip, drip, drop.

Rain Song 
     (Melodie:"If you're happy and you know it")

First a little drop of rain hit the ground, (Tap, Tap)
Then another drop of rain hit the ground, (Tap, Tap)
Then another and another and another and another,
And pretty soon we heard a different sound. (Splash! Splash!)
 

 


 
It is Raining 
     (Melodie: : "Where is thumbkin")

It is raining, It is raining,
On my head, on my head.
Pitter, patter raindrops,
Pitter, patter raindrops,
I'm all wet, I'm all wet!
 

Umbrella Song 
     (Melodie: "I'm A Little Teapot" )

Here's my new Umbrella.
Wide and high.
It keeps me cozy, warm and dry.
If the rain starts falling from the sky
Just open me up and you'll stay dry .
 


 
 
Rhymes
Umbrellas Fingerplay 

(Use fingers or make umbrella puppets)

Five umbrellas stood by the back door,
The red one went outside, then there were four.
Four umbrellas pretty as can be,
The blue one went outside, then there were three.   
Three umbrellas with nothing to do,
The green one went outside, then there was one.
Just one umbrella alone in the hall,
The purple one went outside, and that was all!

Raindrops 

Raindrops are such funny things.
They haven't feet or haven't wings.
Yet they sail through the air
With the greatest of ease,
And dance on the street
Wherever they please.
 
 
 
 


 
It rains on the duck, cow, and horse.
It rains on the trees and leaves, of course!
It rains on a little girl and fella.
But I'm not wet. I have an umbrella! 
 
 
It's Raining, It's Pouring 

It's raining, it's pouring,
The old man is snoring.
He bumped his head, and he went to bed,
And he couldn't get up in the morning. 
 


 
Dancing on a Rainbow

Dancing on a rainbow,     
           (dance fingers above head)
As colours arch the sky.  
          (arch arms above head and out)
Sliding down a rainbow,  
          (slide hands down to lap)
Perched so high.         
          (arch arms above and over head)

Dancing on a gentle cloud,    
         (dance fingers)
Floating through the sky.     
         (float hands)
Twirling on a floating cloud, 
        (twirl hands)
Perched so high.             
        (lift hands up above head)
 
 
 
 
 
 


When the rain is splashing down
      On the fields and on the town
      Singing winds begin to blow
       And the flowers start to grow.
