Welcome to Worm Week of Journey to the Ugly Bug Ball!

This week we will be singing Earth by Russell Hepplewhite with words by the poet Michael Rosen. We will be learning all about worms and making a wormery!

Here’s a little poem to get you started:

There’s a worm at the bottom of my garden,
And his name is Wiggly Woo!
There’s a worm at the bottom of my garden,
And all that he can do,
Is wiggle all night, and wiggle all day,
The people round here they all do say,
There’s a worm at the bottom of my garden,
And his name is Wiggly Woo!
