I Love My Mommy
Sing to tune of "Up on the Housetop"
I love my mommy, Yessiree! 
She is very good to me!
She makes me cookies and yummy treats,
That's my mom and she's real neat! 
Oh, oh, oh, who wouldn't know, Oh, oh, oh, who wouldn't know,
I love my mommy and she loves me,
That's the way it's supposed to be!
Five Pretty Mommies 
Five pretty mommies
I once knew, Fat ones, skinny ones, tall ones, too,
But the one in the middle that belongs to me...
I love her and she loves me!
Down to the grocery we did go,
Wibble - wobble, wibble - wobble, to and fro,
But the one in the middle that belongs to me,
I love her and she loves me!
Mother's Day
Five flower baskets sitting on the floor.
One will go to....................'s mom,
Then there will be four.
Four flower baskets, pretty as can be.
One will go to ...................'s mom,
Then there will be three.
Three flower baskets with flowers red and blue.
One will go to....................'s mom,
Then there will be two.
Two flower baskets, bright as the sun.
One will go to....................'s mom, Then there will be one.
One flower basket, oh, it's sure to go.
To my very own mother, who is the Nicest one I know.
We Love Mothers
Tune to: Frere Jacques
  We love mothers. We love mothers. Yes we do; yes we do.
Mothers are for hugging (hug self)
Mothers are for kissing (blow kiss)
WE love you; yes, we do.
Thank you, mothers. Thank you, mothers. For your love, for your love. Mothers are for hugging, (hug self)
Mothers are for kissing (blow kiss)
We love you; yes, we do.
Fingerplay:
I'll pick some flowers for my Mom.
To make a nice bouquet (pick flowers)
I'll give her a smile (smile) And say, Happy Mother's Day.
Mommy says to try some cheese;
Eat your spinach, if you please.
A glass of milk is good for you --
But shouldn't moms eat good foods, too?
I Love Mommy (tune: Frere Jacques)
I love Mommy, I love Mommy. Yes I do; yes I do.
And my mommy loves me, 
Yes, my mommy loves me, Loves me too;
loves me too.

Mother's Day
Sung to tune of "This Old Man"
Mother's Day, Mother's Day
Is a very special day.
Here's a great big hug 
And lots of kisses too.
Each one says that I love you!  
I Love My Mommy

Mother's Day Song
(Melody:You are my sunshine)
I love you mommy My dearest mommy
You make me happy When I am sad
I want to tell you I really love you!
When I'm with you I am so glad!
A cute verse for a card:
Mother, my darling,
Mother, my dear,
I love you, I love you,
Each day of the year.

You sew the buttons on my clothes (glue button on the page)
You gave me a hankie for my nose (kleenex on the one)
You make good things for me to eat (picture from magazing)
You buy me candy for a treat (glue piece of candy on)
You wash my clothes and mend my socks (picture from mag and a cut our sock)
Dear Mother, I love you lots and lots!! (big heart -  put child's picture in it)

My Wish
If I could have an Only wish
Now wouldn't that Be fine!
I'd wish that Everybody had
A mother just like Mine!
Mother
Who ran to help me when I fell
And had some funny story to tell
Or kissed the place to make  it well?
My MOTHER! 

You kept me safe when I was born.
You kept me warm and fed.
You picked me up and rocked me, and tucked me into bed.
You taught me how to walk and talk and how to use the potty.
You said you'd always love me even  when I was being naughty.
So now I want you to relax, sit back -cuz you never do.
Because today is the day, that I take care of you.
