I had a little pig,
And I fed it in a trough.
He got so big and fat,
That his tail popped off!
So, I got me a hammer,
And I got me a nail,
And I made that pig
A wooden tail

Handwriting 8 – 9 years

Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow
Everywhere that Mary went,
The lamb was sure to go
It followed her to school one day
Which was against the rules.
It made the children laugh and play,
To see a lamb at school

Handwriting 10 years and over

When Pigs Fly
I've heard it said that pigs will fly
and someday soon they'll rule the sky.
That may sound strange but, if it's right,
I don't suppose they'll fly a kite.
I'll bet, instead, they'll have to train
so they can learn to fly a plane,
or join the Navy where they'll get
to learn to fly a fighter jet.
