Kindergarten Spring Concert Information
Singing
Music by Mary Beth Huttlin
Text by Robert Louis Stevenson
Of speckled eggs the birdie sings
And nests among the tress; The sailor sings of ropes and things In ships upon the seas. Sing, children, sing today. Sing in ev'ry way. Sing, children, sing for all. Sing throughout the day. The children sing in far Japan, The children sing in Spain; The organ with the organ man Is singing in the rain. Sing, children, sing today. Sing in ev'ry way. Sing, children, sing for all. Sing throughout the day. |
Hear Now the Mill
(Es Klapert Die Mühle am Rauschenden Bach)
German Folk Song
Oh, hear now the mill by the babbling brook,
Klipp klapp, klipp klapp! By day and by night is the miller at work, Klipp klapp, klipp klapp! He grinds up the grain to make our daily bread, And once we have it, we need nothing instead, Klipp klapp, klipp, klapp, klipp klapp! The grindstone is turned by the mill wheel's power Klipp klapp, klipp klapp! It grids all the wheat to make the finest of flour, Klipp klapp, klipp klapp! The children all love what the good baker bakes– Crisp crackers, warm breads, and our favorite cakes. Klipp klapp, klipp, klapp, klipp klapp |

Country Farms
Words and Music by Lynn Freeman Olson
Piano Accompaniment by Anna Marie Spallina
Additional Lyrics by Holdingford Kindergartners and Maia Hamann
Where are the chickens? Where are the cows?
Where are the tractors pulling cultivator plows? Where are the scarecrows waving their arms? All these are helping on the country farms. Where are the horses? Where are the goats? Where are the sugar beets, the barley, wheat, and oats? Where are the planters when the weather finally warms? All these are helping on the country farms! Where are the soybeans? Where is the corn? Where are the little baby chicks and piglets born? Where are the farmers who work in the barns? All these are helping on the country farms! |
