Winter and Snow Songs

The Snowkey Pokey (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.

Additional verses:
You put your left mitten in . . .
You put your right boot in . . .
You put your left boot in . . .
You put your hat in . . .
You put your snowself in . . .

I'm a little snowman (Sung to the theme I'm a little teapot.)

I'm a little snowman short and stout

Here are my buttons

And here is my hat

When the hot sun comes out

I can't play

Slowly I will melt away

s with the melting melting snow.

Zipper up your coat

Put your mittens on

I am going to plat out side!

Scarf around your neck,

Step into your boots

I am going to plat out side!

It is snowing everywhere

Better cover up your hair

Open up the door

Step into the snow

I am going to play out side!

I Love Snow (Sung to: " Three Blind mice")

I love snow, I love snow.
Soft, white snow; Soft, white snow.
It falls on the ground so soft and white.
Sometimes it falls all through the night.
Did you ever see such a beautiful sight
As soft white snow?

Sing this Snowflake (Sung to: " teddy bear teddy bear")

Snowflake, snowflake falling down, (flutter hands down)
Twirling, twirling to the ground. (twirl to the ground)
Softly, lightly on my nose, (touching nose)
Snowflake, snowflake icy cold! (fold arms and shiver)

The Mitten Song

Thumbs in the thumb place, Fingers all together.
This is the song we sing in mitten weather.
When it's cold, it doesn't matter whether,
Mittens are wool or made of finest leather.
Thumb in the thumb place, fingers all together!

This is the song we sing in mitten weather.

Snow is falling (sung to Clementine)

Snow is falling, snow is falling

Snow is falling all around

If you listen, you won’t hear it

See it glisten on the ground

Snow is melting, snow is melting

Snow is melting all around

What had happen to our snowmen

It’s a puddle on the ground

The mittens on my hands (Sung To: 'Wheels on the Bus')

The mittens on my hands
Will Keep me warm, Keep me warm, Keep me warm
The mittens on my hands
Will Keep me warm
All Winter long!

The boots on my feet

Will Keep me warm ,Keep me warm, Keep me warm

The boots on my feet

Will Keep me warm

All Winter long!

Additional verses:

* The scarf around my neck * The hat on my head * The jacket on my body

Snowflake Song

Sung to: “Teddy bear teddy bear"

Snowflake, snowflake falling down,
(flutter hands down)
Twirling, twirling to the ground.
(twirl to the ground)
Softly, lightly on my nose,
(touching nose)
Snowflake, snowflake icy cold!
(fold arms and shiver)

Ten warm mittens, hanging on the line – poem

Ten warm mittens, hanging on the line,
One blows away and then there are nine.

Nine warm mittens, one without a mate,
A squirrel carries one away and that leaves eight.

Eight warm mittens, just eight not eleven,
One gets buried in the snow and that leaves seven.

Seven warm mittens, which one do you pick?
I'll pick the red one and that leaves six.

Six warm mittens, put one on to try.
Then you take it from the line and that leaves five.

Five warm mittens, we had ten before!
A fluffy bunny needs one and that leaves four!

Four warm mittens, two for you and two for me,
I lost one on the ski slope and that leaves three.

Three warm mittens, looking very new,
One falls into the mud and that leaves two.

Two warm mittens, drying in the sun,
A bird comes down and snatches it and that leaves one.

One warm mitten, what good is one?
A little mouse can have a bed, and that leaves none!

Five Little Snowmen

Original words & music by Kayli Joseph FeltSongs Stories. Available on Five little snowmen flannel board kit and CD

Five little snowmen standing in a row

Each with a hat and a brightly colored bow

Five little snowmen dressed up for a show

Now they are ready where will they go?

Wait ‘til the sun shines, wait ‘til the sun shines

Then they will go

Down through the fields with the melting melting snow.

Four little snowmen standing in a row…

Three little snowmen standing in a row…

Two little snowmen standing in a row…

One little snowman standing all alone

He had a hat and a brightly color bow.

One little snowman dressed up for a show

Now he is ready where will he go?

Wait ‘til the sun shines, wait ‘til the sun shines

Then he will go

Down through the fields with the melting melting snow.
