- Seasonally-themed songs and verses are a wonderful way for children to experience the rhythm of the year. In this week's "Sunday with Sarah," I share a few of my favorites for autumn. Enjoy!
Words to the songs and verses are posted below. Have your own favorites? Share them in the comments!
WAY UP HIGH IN THE APPLE TREE
Way up high in the apple tree
Two little apples smiled down at me.
I shook that tree just as hard as I could
And down came the apples, and "Mmm," they were good!
JACK-O-LANTERN
Jack-O-Lantern, Jack-O-Lantern
You are such a funny sight
As you sit there in my window
Looking out at the night.
You were once a yellow pumpkin
Growing on a sturdy vine
Now you are my Jack-O-Lantern
Let your golden light shine.
LANTERN WALK SONG
I go with my bright little lantern,
My lantern is going with me.
In heaven the stars will be shining,
On earth shines my lantern for me.
The lights grow dim as we go in
La-bimba-la-bomba-la-boom
The lights grow dim as we go in
La-bimba-la-bomba-la-boom.
MEAL TIME SONG
Blow winds blow, and go wheel go
That the miller may grind his corn
That the baker may take it and into bread bake it
And bring us a loaf in the morn, bring us a loaf in the morn.

Every late August I find myself coming back to this video. Thank you for the years of helping me and my new preschoolers start off the year smoothly.
As a beginning English teacher in a primary Waldorf school in Jerusalem I appreciate your videos more than you can imagine!
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS Sarah! I’m a young Waldorf mama with three littles, 4,2 & newborn and I love being inspired by your videos! Such great information and food for thought. The Waldorf lifestyle is so nurturing and beautiful; so grateful for it!
Thank you so much, Lanae. It is comments like yours that keep me going every week. Blessings on your parenting journey.
Thanks again Sarah! ❤ looking forward to more Sundays with you.
Thank you for sharing these beautiful Autumn songs!
Thank you for sharing! Very useful for low-grades teaching English as a foreign Language. :)
I would love to have a song/verse video before each season. It's nice to have someone sing them aloud so you know how they are supposed to sound :) love your videos!
Thank you, Casandra. That's a great idea, and I will plan to do that!
Lovely song.
Absolutely beautiful .- Reminds me of my son´s years in Waldorf play school and school and my years as a waldorf teacher
🙏🏽Thank you!💜🌿
Where I come from in Austria all kindergarten classes celebrate like this. It’s called Laternenfest. Ich gehe mit meiner Laterne 🎃 🍁🍂✨
Gratidão pelo lindo poema da macieira

Beautiful, Sarah. Thank you so much. Can’t wait to try these out with my daughter - we’re just starting Waldorf homepreschooling so these will be our first circle time songs! xx
Thanks Sarah! I love your "play" tattoo ;)
I love your videos! I'd love to see even more videos where you sing songs or verses or tell stories. Thank you for such great content every week!

Amazing! Thank you!
I love this! Thank you for sharing!
Awww Happy Autumn Sarah! I love your Sundays x Thank you so much for sharing these, and particularly for putting down the words (saves me having to try!) Much love x
Five little pumpkins sitting on a hill
The first one said, "I feel winter's chill."
The second one said, "There are ghosties in the air."
The third one said, "Well, I don't care."
The fourth one said, "Let's have some fun!"
The fifth one said, "We will have a downhill run!"
Then WHOOSH went the wind and
out went the light,
then five little pumpkins
went rolling out of sight!
Thanks for sharing, Rong Liu! I used to sing a very similar version of this that went:
Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate
First one said, "Oh my it's getting late."
Second one said, "There are witches in the air."
Third one said, "We don't care."
Fourth one said, "Let's run and run and run."
Fifth one said, "We're ready for some fun."
Ooo-ooh went the wind and out went the lights
And five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!
It's STUPID to talk about ghosts with kids or even teenagers so your song is utterly stupid.
✨💛✨Thank you!
I love this channel. I appreciate, Sarah, every word, song, and verse you share...And I bet my students do, too. Thank you very much.
Beautiful! I will integrate this in my practice 💖
I’m new to Steiner and I work in a mainstream Kindergarten/pre-school (4-5 year olds) in Australia, however I implement many Steiner practices within my work. It is nearly Summer here. I would love to hear some Summer verses I could do with my kinder kids 😊 I would love to watch videos with verses for each season. Would you make some more videos like this? I really enjoy watching them!
Very very cool
I would absolutely love if you did a Winter, Spring, and Summer version of this video!
Thank you so much! I love this so much and used these for autumn last year! Any chance you could do one for Spring?
What are some ways in Waldorf you introduce or learn about the weather and seasons? I teacher Kindergarten and am looking to incorporate anything that will get my students more involved or engaged. Do you have anymore songs or specific books you would recommend? Thank you!
Lovely songs. May you kindly share the lyrics please.
Hi there, where do you get your songs from and who writes them?
Can you please share the woodcutter and fisherman's song and lyrics
What is the song for Michaelmas?
Yes I'd love to know too!!!xx
