As the temperature outside begins to drop, noticeable changes takes place all around us. Leaves change colors and begin to drop, acorns that fall are all over the places and at some forest, squirrel get busy gathering nuts . As this winter gets closer, we start seeing fewer and fewer animals . The ones that do stick around during cold months may behave or look differently than before. Some animals are programmed to face cold weather in several different ways so we took time to introduce the winter animals to our little learners . Some may be familiar to them, others will be brand new and they were amazed by it. Since it’s our field trip month, they might recognize these animals too at the zoo. You can

We also sang the song of the month “Why Do Leaves Change Colors” by simple learning song .

Lyrics of Why Do Leaves Change Colors:

Why do leaves change color?
It happens every year
Why do leaves change color?
There’s nothing to fear
The leaves are changing color
For a good reason
The leaves are changing color
For a new season
Why do leaves change color?
To make way for winter
Why do leaves change color?
To make way for spring
The leaves are changing color
And falling from the tree
The leaves are changing color
What colors can we see?
Yellow, orange, red, brown (6x)

Why do leaves change color?
It happens every year
Why do leaves change color?
There’s nothing to fear
The leaves are changing color
For a good reason
The leaves are changing color
For a new season
Why do leaves change color?
To make way for winter
Why do leaves change color?
To make way for spring
The leaves are changing color
To make way for spring
The leaves are changing color
To grow back fresh and green

Here in this song, Mama squirrel teaches the children all about the changing of the leaves and about the autumn cycle of life. It is a great song for kids.
