Morning at Mossbank Oak

Pip woke up at Mossbank Oak.

The meadow sparkled, soft and bright.

"Good morning, friends!" Pip chirped with glee.

"What lovely colours can we see?"

Red berries on the bramble
Red

Red berries hung on bramble near.

"Look at red!" cried Pip with cheer.

Daisy smiled and Barnaby said,

"Red is bold and warm," he said.

Orange sunset over the lane
Orange

Orange sunset touched the lane.

Pip flapped his wings again.

"Orange glows like mum's warm tea,"

said Barnaby, "for you and me."

Yellow buttercups in the meadow
Yellow

Yellow buttercups danced below.

Daisy twirled on tiptoe-toe.

"Yellow shines like sunny fun,"

they sang beneath the Mossbank sun.

Green moss beside the stream
Green

Green moss grew beside the stream.

Pip's green scarf matched the gleam.

"Green is fresh on every tree,"

said Daisy, "just like you and me."

Bluebells on the Bluebell Path
Blue

Bluebells lined the Bluebell Path.

Barnaby gave a gentle laugh.

"Blue is calm and cool and deep,"

as crickets chirped the friends to sleep.

Purple heather on the hill
Purple

Purple heather on the hill.

Pip stood very, very still.

"All the colours, side by side,"

the meadow friends said with pride.

Friends singing under a rainbow

Rainbow Round-and-Round

Sing slowly together

Red and orange, yellow too,

Green and blue for me and you.

Purple heather, soft and bright,

Colours dancing in the light.

Round and round the rainbow goes,
Through the meadow, tip to toes.
Can you name each colour found?
Rainbow round-and-round!

(Repeat the chorus together!)
