Zoe's Windy Day - Barbara ReidSongs, Poems, Stories, & Fingerplays When the Wind Rushes
When the wind rushes,
Swirling and sweeping,
Little white clouds
All wake from their sleeping.
Across the bright sky
they tumble and fly
To play with the kites
that are jiggling by.When the wind rushes,
Dipping and dancing,
The clothes on the clothesline
Start leaping and prancing.
They rattle their clothespins
and away they all fly
To play with the clouds
And the kites in the sky!~ Patricia Hubbell
~ Submitted by Sue in PAMarch Wind
March wind is a jolly fellow;
He likes to joke and play.
He turns umbrellas inside out
And blows men's hats away.
He calls the pussy willows
And whispers in each ear,
"Wake up you lazy little seeds,
Don't you know that spring is here.Arts & Crafts Paper Plate Kite

Finally punch a hole at the nose of the plate and tie a piece of yarn through it. Wrap additional yarn around a craft stick (tape the yarn to the stick) Now your children have a kite that will really fly on a windy day.
