Listen to our Little Pocket Mouse song-in-progress
Category: Animal Songs Published: Saturday, April 10, 2010 I’m small and furry, watch me scurry! It's the middle of the night and I'm in a hurry To gather seeds I like to eat. And store those seeds inside my cheeks. I'm a little pocket mouse. And when the sun begins to rise, I find my tunnel and I crawl inside. And there I hide the food I found And rest all day 'til the sun goes down. I'm a little pocket mouse. CHORUS: Pocket mouse, oh where's your house? It's underground where I cannot be found. Oh no, no, no! (no, no) I'm a mouse who likes my privacy, So it came as a surprise to me To learn I was hero in the rodent family! It started in 1972 On a spaceship that went around moon. Of all the animals smart and strong Who did the astronauts take along? It was the Little Pocket Mouse! With lots of food in their big cheek pockets, Five little mice boarded that rocket Didn't know much about outer space, but they were glad to help the human race That little pocket mouse! CHORUS: Pocket mouse, oh where's your house? It's underground where I cannot be found. Oh no, no, no! (no, no) I'm a mouse who likes my privacy, So it came as a surprise to me To learn I was hero in the rodent family!

I am writing a new song about the Little Pocket Mouse
Category: Animal Songs Published: Friday, February 26, 2010 I am currently writing a new animal song for kids about this very cute and rare rodent. The Pacific Pocket Mouse, a subspecies of the Little Pocket Mouse, is on the U.S. Endangered Species List. It is classified as an endangered animal in California. . . I first learned about the Little Pocket Mouse when i went on a hike in San Onofre State Beach in San Clemente, California. There I learned that the Pacific Pocket Mouse was a hero of sorts, because it's endangered status is one of the key things that kept a new toll road from being built right through its habitat in San Onofre State Beach. When an animal has been declared endangered, wildlife protection laws usually also protect their habitat, and it very difficult to get approval to build on that habitat or put a road through it. San Onofre is a very beautiful park and many people believe that the Little Pacific Pocket Mouse saved this park from being nearly destroyed! . . . Whenever I write an new animal song for kids, I first learn as much as I can about the animal. . . I am still writing my Little Pocket Mouse song and look forward to adding it to my collection of animal songs for kids.
Our 2009 Animal Songs for Kids by Birdsong and the Eco-Wonders. Thank you to our Fans!
Category: Animal Songs Published: Wednesday, December 30, 2009 As 2009 draws to a close, I would like to thank all our fans for singing with us and doing your part to take care of the animals and plants with whom we share the Earth. Every one of you makes a difference when you choose actions that help keep the water, soil and air clean. We's also like to thank the eco-wonders (the amazing animals and plants) that inspired our new songs of 2009. These songs include I Almost Kissed a Butterfly, Plant a Habitat, and Leaders of the Pack . . . We'd like to give special thanks to our friends Sabrina from Oro Street, Jodi from EARTHROOTS FIELD SCHOOL and Lori and Reginald from BACK TO NATIVES RESTORATION for planting habitats and seeds of education in our community and inspiring verses in our song Plant a Habitat . . . Finally, thank you to the Defenders of wildlife and the National Resourse Defense Council (NRDC) for working so hard to protect the endangered gray wolves of North America and other endangered animals around the world. Your e-mails inspired me to learn more about wolves and write our song Leaders of the Pack.. While i was writing my kids' song I ALMOST KISSED A BUTTERFLY, I learned that plants were very important to butterflies, birds and many of the creatures that we share our neighborhoods with. Plants provide food and shelter for our animal friends, and some animals will only eat very specific plants. This knowledge inspired me to write a new animal song for kids named, Plant a Habitat.
A Song about Fruit Bats, Seeds and Trees by Lucas Miller
Category: Animal Songs Published: Tuesday, August 11, 2009 Who knew that a fruit bat and a seed could be so important for people around the world? I've also included the lyrics below to help you sing along. Click here to listen to Can You See The Connection?, courtesy of Free Songs for Kids. Did you know that bats find food as well as find their way their way around by echolocation? There is another animal on this blog that also uses echolocation. You can learn about that animal in one of our animal song videos. Any guesses?
