I greet the noon with open arms
The sun has risen in the sky
I spread my arms just like a bird
I want to soar and jump and fly!
(Refrain)
Oh Sun…
Play with me, Sing with me, Shine your lovely rays on me
Oh Sun….
Walk with me, Talk with me, Dance with me so happily!
My friends and I we gather here
And make a circle like the sun
We play the afternoon away
The Earth, the Heavens and we are one.
(Refrain)
Oh Sun…
Play with me, Sing with me, Shine your lovely rays on me
Oh Sun….
Walk with me, Talk with me, Dance with me so happily!

Story Time Song
Traditional Waldorf
Fairies of the storytime
Come and share your stories with me
I am listening with my ears
And I’m sitting quietly

Snack Blessing
Traditional Waldorf
Earth that grows for us this food
Sun that makes it ripe and good
Dear God we thank you
for sending us these gifts
