Children's Poems
For 3-5 Year Olds 

FLIPPERTY FLOPPERTY WORLD

 

​

It's a flipperty flopperty world,

with wibbly wobbly trees

and dibberty dabberty fields,

plus a zipperty zappety breeze.

 

It's a flipperty flapperty world,

with a dingly dangly sun

and splisherty splasherty seas,

plus happerty hopperty fun.

 

Oh, it's a flipperty flopperty world,

with a stickerty stackerty sky

and plipperty plopperty planets,

plus a moon that's a custard pie.

​

YOU CAN'T CATCH ME

 

 

I run and run and run and run.

I run so fast. It's so much fun.

I'm faster than a Bumble Bee,

or racing cars. You can't     

catch   

                                                     me!      

​

LET'S SAY LETTERS

 

 

Let's say letters (A,B,C)

Let's say numbers (1,2,3)

Let's do puzzles (Piece by piece)

Let's do lunchtime (Eat! Eat! Eat!)

 

Let's go playing (Run! Run! Run!)

Let's go painting (Fun! Fun! Fun!)

Let's go singing (La! La! La!)

Let's hear adults (Blah! Blah! Blah!)  

​

Let's play flying (Flap! Flap! Flap!)

Let's do rhythm (Clap! Clap! Clap!)

Let's start jumping (Bounce! Bounce! Bounce!)

Let's play Tigers (Pounce! Pounce! Pounce!)

​

Let's try catching (Throw! Throw! Throw!)

Let's try races (Go! Go! Go!)

Let's try falling (Roll! Roll! Roll!)

Let's try football (Goal! Goal! Goal!) 

​

Let's do drumming (Bash! Bash! Bash!)

Let's do bath-time (Splash! Splash! Splash!)

Let's do cooking (Bake! Bake! Bake!)

Let's do parties (Cake! Cake! Cake!)

​

Let's do monsters (Rah! Rah! Rah!)

Let's do laughing (ha! Ha! Ha!)

Let's do lions (Roar! Roar! Roar!)

Let's do Daddy (Snore! Snore! Snore!)

​

I WON'T GO TO BED​​​

​

 

I won't go to bed.

It's early yet.

The sun has hardly 

broken sweat.

​

I won't go to bed.

It won't be right,

when toys will miss

me through the night.

​

I won't go to bed.

You can't make me.

I'm a big boy now.

I'm nearly three!

​

SPIKY THE SPOON

 

 

Spiky The Spoon

went up to the moon

to see how the stars are made.

​

They're made from custard,

and plenty of mustard,

plus lashings of real Lemonade.

​

​

DON'T TRICK OR TREAT

A LION

​​

Don't trick or treat a lion,

as when it's at the door,

it won't give you some candy,

but give a giant ROARRRRRR!
