Shamrock felt board poem

Westley's preschool does not celebrate ANY holidays. While I respect the reasons why and am glad he isn't doing an overabundance of cheesy crafts, I do feel like he's missing out on some holiday fun.
So, I've been trying to talk up St. Patrick's Day to him.
I found a little Shamrock poem/song online and made some felt shamrocks for it for our felt board.

here's how it goes:

Five Little Shamrocks

One green shamrock, in the morning dew;
Another one sprouted;
And then there were two.
Two green shamrocks, growing 'neath the tree,
Another one sprouted;
And then there were three.
Three green shamrocks, by the cottage door,
Another one sprouted;
And then there were four.
Four green shamrocks, near a beehive;
Another one sprouted;
And then there were five.
Five little shamrocks, bright and emerald
Five little shamrocks, bright and emerald green,
Think of all the luck these shamrocks will bring.





It's catchy... I still have it stuck in my head :)
