Six For The Children

1.Tug of War Dog, snapping at foam Waves chasing its leaping paws Sea’s wet tug of war 2.The Taste of Summer Pink globe on a cone Ice on a hot tongue tingling Summer goes so fast 3.The Cat’s Birthday On our cat’s birthday I gave her a hat A fish cake, a saucer of milk and a mat She spat in my eye, she ate the fish She jumped in the air and broke the dish 4.Sophie Sophie is a little girl with very nasty habits She feeds her collie caramels And terrifies pet rabbits She stole her granny dentures And gave her grandpa fits She put detergent in the soup She gave her brother nits And just this very Monday Upon her trampoline She bounced the neighbour’s baby So she could hear it scream But if you think she’s scarey She’s not as bad as some Yes, Sophie is a monster But you haven’t met her Mum! 5.School Assembly Guest We’re having a special guest today She’s large and Scottish made She’s partial to water and loves to swim She works in the tourist trade She’s a TV personality Children, you’ll never guess Put your hands together & give three cheers For the Monster of Loch Ness 6.Where Where do swallows go in winter? Do they visit polar bears? Do they hide in granny’s cupboard? With the books beneath the stairs? Where do thunder storms come from? Are they just a cloud’s brass band? Cymbals clash and drum rolls patter Bringing raindrops to the land Where does Mr Moon slip off to? Is it true he’s made of cheese? Where have all my daydreams hidden? Help me find them, daddy, please!
