The Chubby Little Snowman

had a carrot nose.
Along came a bunny
and what do you suppose?

looking for it's lunch,
Ate the snowman's carrot nose...

WHOOPS! I'M A PUDDLE

Five Little Snowmen

Five little snowmen shivering in the ice.
The first one said,
"This isn't very nice."
The second one said,
" I can hardly wait for spring."
The third one said,
"Then birds will sing!"
The fourth one said,
"Here comes the bright,
warm sun!"
The fifth one said,
"This is our last day of fun!
"Aah," said the snowmen as warm breezes blew.
Five little snowmen know winter is through.

Five Little Snowmen
Tune: Six Little Ducks

Five little snowmen went out to play
Over the hills and far away.
When the sun came out,
it melted one away.
Four little snowmen came back that day.

Zero little snowmen went out to play
Over the hills and far away.
But when winter came back,
it brought snow along the way.
Then five little snowmen came back that day!

Snowflakes
Tune: Sailing, Sailing

No two are alike!

I Love Snow
Tune: Three Blind Mice

As soft white snow?

Snowflakes
Tune: Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star

On the trees and on the ground.

Tall black hat and eyes of coal,
If the sun comes out today,
I will watch you melt away!

Way up high in the winter sky,
2 little snowflakes caught my eye.
Down to the ground they fell without a sound.

It was snowing all around.

On days of gray.
And when the sun's out,
You'll hear us all shout.
Please don't take our snowman away!

Snow Falls On My Shoulders

Snow falls on my shoulders.

Snow falls all around me.

Snow makes not a sound.
(bring index finger to lips)

I'm A Friendly Snowman
Tune: I'm a Little Teapot

I'm a friendly snowman,
big and fat,
Here is my tummy
and here is my hat.
I'm a happy fellow,
here's my nose,
I'm all snow from my

I have two bright eyes
so I can see,
All the snow falling down on me.
When the weather's cold,
I'm strong and tall,
But when it's warm, I get very small!

Snowflakes
Tune Mary Had A Little Lamb

Snowflakes falling
from the sky,

dance and whirl,
Watch them as they dance and whirl,
soft white winter snow.

Snowflakes are falling on the ground
On our houses and in our town
On my nose and in my hair

There are lots of things to do.
