Part 3 of Jack in the Green,

So Jack got out of bed, stretched his arms wide above his head and gave a big final yawn for the day. He walked towards his curtains and opened them. “Look mum”, Jack said, “the sun has announced that spring has arrived. Soon it will be mayday and I am determined to win this year’s contest for the most beautiful garland, if not the longest! The prize money would surely help us to fix everything that needs fixing. Including our scruffy old curtains.” After Jack had fed their animals he joined his parents for some breakfast. Jack asked them if they would help him with gather all the new spring flowers and ivy they could find. Over the next couple of weeks, Jack and his dad went searching far and wide. It didn’t take long before the glass fruit bowl was overflowing. So they used the small side cupboard instead, to find out that was overflowing. So everything was moved into the big wardrobe. When that was full, they finally moved all the flowers and ivy into Jack’s bedroom. Leaving just a little space in the middle and his bed to sleep in.

Sing-a-long with the song 'Oh, Jack's world is blooming':

(Verse 1)

In Jack's kitchen, there's a fruit bowl so bright,

But it's overflowing with flowers, what a sight!

Apples and oranges, hidden beneath,

Petals and blossoms, a colorful wreath.

(Chorus)

Oh, Jack's world is blooming, everywhere you see,

Flowers and ivy, as far as can be.

From the fruit bowl to the cupboard, and the wardrobe too,

Jack's room is a garden, with just a bed in view.

(Verse 2)

In the corner of the kitchen, there's a cupboard so small,

But it's overflowing with ivy, climbing up the wall.

Leaves and tendrils, reaching for the sky,

Jack just laughs as they grow so high.

(Chorus)

Oh, Jack's world is blooming, everywhere you see,

Flowers and ivy, as far as can be.

From the fruit bowl to the cupboard, and the wardrobe too,

Jack's room is a garden, with just a bed in view.

(Verse 3)

In Jack's bedroom, there's a wardrobe so grand,

But it's overflowing with flowers, like a magical land.

Roses and daisies, bursting out the door,

Jack can't find his clothes anymore!

(Chorus)

Oh, Jack's world is blooming, everywhere you see,

Flowers and ivy, as far as can be.

From the fruit bowl to the cupboard, and the wardrobe too,

Jack's room is a garden, with just a bed in view.

(Bridge)

Jack's room is a jungle, with flowers and vines,

But he loves the beauty, and he doesn't mind.

With a little space left, for his bed to sleep,

Jack dreams of gardens, in slumber so deep.

(Chorus)

Oh, Jack's world is blooming, everywhere you see,

Flowers and ivy, as far as can be.

From the fruit bowl to the cupboard, and the wardrobe too,

Jack's room is a garden, with just a bed in view.

(Outro)

So if you visit Jack, be ready for a surprise,

A house full of flowers, right before your eyes.

With laughter and joy, Jack's world is so sweet,

A blooming paradise, from his head to his feet.

Part 2 of Jack in the Green,

Their son, a young lad called Jack was still asleep when one of the sunbeams found its way through one of the tiny holes in his bedroom curtains. The sunbeam managed to reachJack’s nose and started to tickle him. It didn’t take long for Jack to wake up. The tickling of his nose would surely make him sneeze. And it did. Jack took a deep breath and emptied his lungs and went “Haaaaaaa Choooooooow!”. It was soloud that it even made the rooster fall off his tree branch, landing right on top of mother goose. Jack’s mother ran into his room and asked him if he felt this earthquake making their cottage and everything in it shake and rattle as never before. Jack laughed and said, “Oh mum, it was just me sneezing loudly, did I wake you?”. “I think you woke up everyone in the entire universe boy”, mother answered. “Never mind”, said mother, “you get yourself ready so you can go and feed our animals”.

Sing-a-long with the Sneezing song, Achoo, achoo!:

(Verse 1)

Little Jack was playing in the yard one day,

When he felt a tickle that wouldn't go away.

He scrunched up his nose, and his eyes got wide,

Then he let out a sneeze that echoed far and wide.

(Chorus)

Achoo, achoo, Jack's mighty sneeze,

Made the rooster fall from the tree with ease.

He landed on Mother Goose with a thud,

And they both rolled around in the mud.

(Verse 2)

The rooster was perched on a branch so high,

Crowing at the sun in the bright blue sky.

But Jack's big sneeze gave him quite a fright,

And down he tumbled, what a comical sight!

(Chorus)

Achoo, achoo, Jack's mighty sneeze,

Made the rooster fall from the tree with ease.

He landed on Mother Goose with a thud,

And they both rolled around in the mud.

(Bridge)

Mother Goose honked and flapped her wings,

While the rooster crowed and tried to sing.

Jack just laughed till his sides were sore,

He'd never seen such a scene before.

(Chorus)

Achoo, achoo, Jack's mighty sneeze,

Made the rooster fall from the tree with ease.

He landed on Mother Goose with a thud,

And they both rolled around in the mud.

(Outro)

So if you hear a sneeze that's loud and clear,

Watch out for roosters and geese, my dear.

For Jack's big sneeze can cause quite a fuss,

And leave everyone laughing, just like us.

Part 1 of Jack in the Green,

It was in the early morning of the 21st of March when winter left the country of England. He left the door open from an old scabby cottage in Hastings, a small seaside town in Sussex. This was because spring would soon arrive and the first sunbeams were already gently finding their way all across the land and in particular towards the old cottage near the sea. The family living in the cottage were chimney sweeps and they usually made just enough money to bring food to their table and provide food for the few farm animals they had. During winter they hardly made any money, but soon everyone would start their spring cleaning and that always included giving the good old chimneys a decent run through. Perhaps this year they would earn enough money to buy some new curtains.

Sing-a-long with the chimney sweeps song:

(Verse1)

In the town of Hastings, where the chimneys stand tall,

The sweepers get ready, it's the start of it all.

With brushes in hand and smiles on their faces,

They're off to the rooftops, to all the old places.

(Chorus)

Sweep, sweep, sweep, the chimneys clean,

Bringing joy to Hastings, like a dream.

With soot on their faces and hearts so bright,

They're earning new curtains, working day and night.

(Verse 2)

From dawn till dusk, they climb and they sweep,

Through the narrow flues, and the chimneys so deep.

The town folks cheer as the soot disappears,

The sweepers keep going, conquering their fears.

(Chorus)

Sweep, sweep, sweep, the chimneys clean,

Bringing joy to Hastings, like a dream.

With soot on their faces and hearts so bright,

They're earning new curtains, working day and night.

(Bridge)

Oh, the laughter and the songs they sing,

Echo through the town, like the bells that ring.

With every sweep, they're closer to their goal,

New curtains for the windows, warming every soul.

(Chorus)

Sweep, sweep, sweep, the chimneys clean,

Bringing joy to Hastings, like a dream.

With soot on their faces and hearts so bright,

They're earning new curtains, working day and night.

(Outro)

So here's to the sweepers, with their brushes and brooms,

Bringing light to the chimneys, chasing away the gloom.

In Hastings, they work with all their might,

For those new curtains, they'll sweep through the night.
