5 Spring Poems for Kids

Integrate lessons about the changes in seasons with these Spring poems for kids. It's the first day of March, and I awoke to the sound of thunderstorms and tornado sirens.  Needless to say, March is coming in like a lion.  Believe it or not, we will end the night with snow.

This up and down weather is a sure sign Spring is on it's way.  These printable 5 Spring poems for kids are a reminder of what's to come; hearing the chirps of baby birds, digging through mud to find worms, jumping in rain puddles, and planting flowers.
