Frog Poems and Songs
The Bullfrog Song
The bullfrog sang the strangest song, he sang it night and day.
Ker-runk, ker-runk, ker-runk, ker-runk, ker-runk, was all it seemed to say.
A duck who liked to sing thought he would give the song a try:
Ker-runk, quack, quack, ker-runk, quack, quack they sang as I walked by.
The spotted cow had never heard a more delightful song.
Right then and there the spotted cow began to sing along.
The frog, the duck, the spotted cow sang out so loud and clear:
Ker-runk, quack, quack, ker-runk, moo, moo was all that I could hear.
The speckled hen, a mother hen, whose work was never done,
began to sing for she knew when you sing your work is fun.
The frog, the duck, the cow, the hen, all sang the happy song:
Ker-runk, quack, quack, moo, moo, cluck, cluck, they sang the whole day long.

Five Green and Speckled Frogs
Five green and speckled frogs
Sat on a speckled log
Eating some most delicious bugs
YYYYUUUUMMMM YYYYUUUUMMMM
One jumped into the pool
Where it was nice and cool
Then there were
Four green and speckled frogs
GGGGLLLLUUUUBBBB GGGGLLLLUUUUBBBB

Five Little Tadpoles (Poem)
Five little tadpoles swimming near the shore.
The first one said, “Let’s swim some more.”
The second one said, “Let’s rest awhile.”
The third one said, “Swimming makes me smile.”
The fourth one said, “My legs are growing long.”
The fifth one said, “I’m getting very strong.”
Five little tadpoles will soon be frogs.
They’ll jump from the water and sit on logs.
Little Green Frog
(Action Song! Actions in [ ]'s)
Mm, Mm went the little green frog one day,
[stick tongue out on 2nd
"Mm"]
Mm, Mm went the little green frog,
[stick tongue out on 2nd
"Mm"]
Mm, Mm went the little green frog one day,
[stick tongue out on 2nd

And they all went Mm, Mm, Aahh!
[stick tongue out on 2nd
"Mm" and open mouth wide for Aahh!]
But!
We all know frogs go, [CLAP]

We all know frogs go, [CLAP]
Lahdeedahdeedah!
They don't go [stick tongue out
on 2nd "Mm" and open mouth wide for Aahh!]
I Have a Little Frog
I have a little frog
His name is Tiny Tim,
I put him in the bathtub,
To see if he could swim,
He drank up all the water,
And gobbled up the soap!
And when he tried to talk
He had a BUBBLE in his throat!
