The Hug Bug Club - FALL 2007
I
hope that you had fun this summer! I
have just written a new song, which I hope to record next year, called,
“Valentine, Springtime, Forest, Sky and Pumpkin” about my Hug Bugs.
There are five different colours and each one of them has a different
personality, but they all love to give hugs!
Let’s sing the Hug Bug song?

sample of The Hug Bug
The
Hug Bug, the Hug Bug, the Hug Bug, never know where it’s hiding,
It’s
the Hug Bug, the Hug Bug; watch out it’s gonna hug you!
If
you’re in a growly mood, sitting alone on your bed,
The
Hug Bug will sneak up from behind and hug you right on your head!
Recorded on “Diamond in
the Rough”
Here is part my new song with verses about the latest Hug Bugs,
Pumpkin
(orange) and Sky (blue).
Chorus
Valentine,
Springtime, Forest and Sky,
Pumpkin,
too, comes rolling by,
Bringing
you hugs and bringing you fun,
The
Hug Bugs are coming to everyone!
Sky
likes watching the clouds drift by, making animals in the sky,
She
likes to draw and stories she’ll spin,
Watching
the clouds dance with the wind.
Pumpkin
is rolly, polly and round; he likes to joke and jump around,
He
is orange, a colourful sight,
Like a Jack-o-Lantern on Halloween night.
Chorus
Draw
your favourite Hug Bug (or draw them all!) and send them to me.
Valentine is red, Springtime
is purple, Forest is green, Sky
is blue and Pumpkin is orange. I
will write back to you!
Fall
is in the air! The leaves are changing to autumn colours and the nights are cool
and crisp. Fall means getting back
to school and starting new projects and activities.
I hope that you are getting lots of exercise and walking, like, “The
Walking School Bus”!
When I go to my school, I like to walk and I’m no fool,
With my friends, I’m just fine. Riding the Walking School Bus.
One of our parents comes along, we whistle and talk or sing a song,
Who needs a car when it’s not too far? Riding the Walking School Bus.
Two by two we cross the street, look left and right, then pick up our feet,
We don’t run, we stay together, walking to school in all kinds of weather.
Rain? Sure!
Snow? Of course!
Windy? Fine!
How about sunshine? Walking in sunshine!
