Goodbye, Winter

"Goodbye, Winter" is a children's song, sung to the tune of "Frere Jacques". Goodbye, winter, Goodbye, winter. Hello, spring, Hello, spring. Tulips in my backyard, Tulips in my backyard, Are blossoming, Are blossoming! Bonus activity: Take children outside for recess on an early spring day and sing this song. Ask children how they know the seasons have changed and that spring has arrived. Is the air warmer? The grass greener? Are flowers blooming? Are butterflies flitting about?
