Time of Day Song
The Day Goes By Song
In the morning, the sun comes up, 🌅
Time to wake and fill my cup!
Brush my teeth and eat my food,
Morning puts me in a good mood!
In the afternoon, the sun is high, ☀️
I play and learn and wonder why!
Lunchtime, playtime, so much fun,
The afternoon has just begun!
In the evening, the sun goes down, 🌆
Dinner time when family's around!
Bath and stories, say goodnight,
Everything will be alright!
At nighttime, the moon shines bright, 🌙
Stars are twinkling, what a sight!
Close my eyes and go to sleep,
Tomorrow's memories to keep!
Practice: When Do We Do This?
Look at each activity and pick when we usually do it!
When do we eat breakfast?
When do we go to sleep?
When do we eat lunch at school?
When do we wake up?
When do we eat dinner with family?
