Poems:
The Fuzzy Caterpillar
(Tune: Itsy Bitsy Spider)
The fuzzy caterpillar
Curled up on a leaf,
Spun her little chrysalis
And then fell fast asleep.
While
she was sleeping
She dreamed that she could fly,
And later when she woke up
She was a butterfly!
(Tune: Itsy Bitsy Spider)
The fuzzy caterpillar

And then fell fast asleep.

And later when she woke up
She was a butterfly!
The Butterfly Song
(Tune: Up on the Housetop)
First comes a butterfly and lays an egg.
Out comes a caterpillar with many legs.
Oh see the caterpillar spin and spin,
A little chrysalis to sleep in.
Oh, oh ,oh wait and see!
Oh, oh, oh wait and see!
Out of the chrysalis, my oh my,
Out comes a beautiful butterfly!
