Apple Seed

(Tune: Itsy Bitsy Spider)

Once a little apple seed

Was planted in the ground.

Down came the raindrops

Falling all around

Out came the bright sun

As bright as bright could be

and the little apple seed

Grew up to be an apple tree

Crafts: 

Earth

Let children use eyedroppers to drop blue and green colored water on a coffee filter. They will love watching the filter absorb the water. When it is done the filters look just like the Earth.
