Kindergarten Q2 Poems

Early To Bed

By Benjamin Franklin, from

Poor Richard’s Almanac

Early to bed and early to

rise,

Makes a man

healthy,

wealthy,

And wise.

Deddle, Deddle, Dumpling

A Nursery Rhyme

Deddle, Deddle,

dumpling, my son

John, went to bed

with his stockings on;

One shoe off, and

one shoe on, Deddle,

Deddle dumpling, my

son John.

My Nose

By Dorothy Aldis

It doesn’t breathe;

It doesn’t smell;

It doesn’t feel

So very well. 

I am discouraged

With my nose:

The only thing it does is blows.

Little Jack Pumpkin Face

—Anonymous

Little Jack Pumpkin Face

Lived on a vine.

Little Jack pumpkin Face

Thought it was fine.

First he was small and green

Then big and yellow;

Little Jack Pumpkin Face

Is a fine fellow.

Humpty Dumpty

A Nursery Rhyme

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,

Humpty Dumpty had a great

fall.

All the kings horses

And all the kings men

Couldn’t put Humpty together

again.

Little Jack Horner

A Nursery Rhyme

Little Jack Horner sat in a corner,

Eating a Christmas pie;

He put in his thumb, and took out a plum,

And said, “What a good boy am I!”
