Forest Animal and Camping Songs

Mr. Squirrel
(poem)
Oh Mr. Squirrel,
Way up in the tree.
I see you,
Do you see me?

Oh Mr. Squirrel
Collecting nuts in Fall,
How will you remember
Where you hid them all?

A-CAMPING WE WILL GO
Tune:  “The Farmer in the Dell”

A-camping we will go, a-camping we will go,
Heigh ho, we love it so, a-camping we will go.

First we’ll pitch our tent, first we’ll pitch our tent.
Heigh ho, we love it so, first we’ll pitch our tent.

Next we’ll take a hike, next we’ll take a hike,
Heigh ho, we love it so, next we’ll take a hike.

Then we’ll take a swim, then we’ll take a swim.
Heigh ho, we love it so, then we’ll take a swim.

At last we’ll build a fire, at last we’ll build a fire.
Heigh ho, we love it so, at last we’ll build a fire.

A-camping we will go, a-camping we will go.
Heigh ho, we love it so, a-camping we will go.

Along the Trail
Tune:  “Skip to My Lou”

I met a bear along the trail,
I met a bear along the trail,
I met a bear along the trail,
I stood very still.

(Additional verses: squirrel, deer, rabbit, skunk)

FISHY, FISHY
Tune: "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star"

Fishy, fishy in the brook.
Watch me catch it with my hook.
I will fry it up tonight.
Then, eat it by the bright moonlight.

COOKING MARSHMALLOWS
Tune:  “The Hokey Pokey”

You put the marshmallow in,
You take the marshmallow out.
You put the marshmallow in
And you turn it all about.
You put it by the embers,
Until it’s nice and brown.
That’s when you gobble it up.
