Samuel's Chores
adapted from Jesus’ Wooden Toys
“My Friend Jesus”
|
When Samuel was just a little lad
He helped Priest Eli in the temple tent
Oh he lit the lamps and he swept the floors
He listened to Eli and did all his chores
He did all his chores – He was really, really good!
In the temple tent Samuel worked all day
Before he went out to play
Oh he lit the lamps and he swept the floors
He listened to Eli and did all his chores
He did all his chores – He was really, really good! |
When Samuel worked, he always did his best
To make things clean in the temple tent
Oh he lit the lamps and he swept the floors
He listened to Eli and did all his chores
He did all his chores – He was really, really good!

The Helping Song
Tune
“This Old Man”
I help you, you help me
We’re a helping family
Helping, helping, sing a helping song
Helping, helping, all day long
This is the Way
adapted from “Silly Songs”
This is the way we put on our hat
Put on our hat, put on our hat
This is the way we put on our hat
Early in the morning |
…sunscreen
…shoes |
Flutter Flutter Butterfly
Tune “Twinkle, Twinkle”
Flutter, flutter butterfly
Floating in the springtime sky
Floating by for all to see
Floating by so merrily
Flutter, flutter butterfly
Floating in the springtime sky
Mr Snail
source unknown
Mr Snail, Mr Snail
You leave a shiny silver trail
So we can see where you have been
Slow Mr Snail
The rain comes falling
Pitter, patter
Upon your hard shiny back
The rain comes falling
Pitter, patter
Slow Mr Snail |
The sun it comes shining through
To brighten up your little room
The sun it comes shining through
Slow Mr Snail

Down By the Pond
from “Fingers and All for Jesus” (Out of Print)
Optional -
Frog
Hat - from Making Friends
|
Down by the pond sits Mr Frog
Sunning himself on an old wet log
He looks around with bulging eyes
For tasty bugs and dragonflies |
When one comes along he grabs like a flash
Then jumps in the pond with a big ker-splash!
God made the frog for us to
see
It show His love for you and me |
Here is the Beehive
Traditional Rhyme
Here is the beehive
But where are the bees?
Hiding away where nobody sees
Watch and you’ll see them
come out of the hive
One, two, three, four, five
Buzzzzzzzzzzzz…
Back in the hive!
Listen and Obey
Fingerplay
|
This is the way these boys and girls
Can hop and skip and play
But when their mummies call to them
They listen and obey
|
Use fingers to skip on hands
Cup hands to call, then cup hand to ear |
|
This is the way these boys and girls
Can climb a tree so tall
But they come climbing down again
When they hear daddy call |
Use fingers to climb up arm
Fingers climb down again, then cup hand to ear |
