I Often Go Walking

Mother's Day is a month away.  If you need to teach or review some Mother's day songs, now is the time.  One of my favorites is "I Often Go Walking" on p.202.  I have several "prompts" for phrases that help the children.
First verse:
  1st line - cut-out of a green clover 
  2nd line - several stems of artificial or paper blue flowers
  3rd line - act like you are picking flowers
  4th line - point to flowers and then point to the children

Second verse:
  1st line - cut out a few hearts with love written on them and put them on a stick to look like a flower
  2nd line - a bottle of perfume or smell a flower
  3rd line - use a picture of a field of flowers
  4th line - show a picture of a mother

The first verse is beautiful but the second verse tells about the heart and soul of loving a mother.  There is also a post on this same song last year.  You may choose to use those ideas, as well.
