Sa fim copii (Let us be children )

This song was used by Emilia for our school presentation. As I promised, I translated into English so all of you could understand what it was about. I also tried to write the lyrics as well as I could in order to be sung by our partners, if they wanted to.:)
These are the lyrics:
Time passes as the wind flies day after day / And we remember ourselves when we were kids/ Today as we're watching the children’s happy play / We feel that time is still and we all dream of it

Let us be children , one day , yes, one more/ Riding a toy horse in a merry-go-round/ Let us be children , one day , yes, one more / Happy to be in the childhood world.

Remember from time to time just for one day/ Our happiness when we were children/ Just laughing or running in the park ,oh, as we used to do / Or hopping the old hopscotch in the street again

Let us be children , one day , yes, one more/ Riding a toy horse in a merry-go-round/ Let us be children , one day , yes, one more / Happy to be in the childhood world.

A record from Turkey

Grandfather Trichko

The song of Shumen’s children is called “Grandfather Trichko”... Grandfather Trichko sews caps of socks. He catches the crabs with a mustache. He stops the train with stick. He picks pears in boots. “Hey, this grandfather Trichko” - wonder children ... We offer our cheerful and playful song. We hope you enjoy it. We are very pleased when we sang it for you. Children from kindergarten № 1 Shumen, Bulgaria

Portuguese voices in training

This is an experience.
We promisse one thing: we will be back with music...

For now, just our voices in trainning.

Traditions and Traditions

In Portugal, we haven't Halloween for tradition.
But all the pupils already know it because there are a lot of publicity around it.

"Bread for God" (Pão por Deus) is a tradition that happens mostly at Lisbon area. Children ask for bread or dried fruit from home to home and say friendly spiels to those who give something and not friendly spiels for those who don't open their doors.
In our region, we don't celebrate "Bread for God".

We learn a little bit about different traditions and did a video about...

From Romania (Tecuci)

Idea for an activity on Halloween

I also used this song for little children. They liked it because it's easy, funny with gestures and costumes. We can teach some adjectives using this song too.Super Simple Songs are useful and children love all these songs.

Halloween

In Romania we don't celebrate Halloween, but, of course we teach children songs during our English lessons. This is one of my student's favourite song for Halloween. It's good to teach parts of the body too. I hope you will enjoy it!

Song about forest

"Here's to the Romans"

Hi, dear all!
I'd like suggest you the song "Here's to the Romans" from Sing Up. When I went in England before two years, I visited the town of Bath. It's a beautiful small town in south- west part of Britain. The river Avon goes along nearby. The Roman name of Bath is Aqua Sulis because the town is famous with the warm mineral water.There is the Roman Bath, too. The British Jane Austen had been here and she had written many books. This song is simple but it can give us a lot of bathing information about the town so you can learn something interesting. Hope that your children will like it, too. You can visit the website:
http://www.singup.org/songbank/song-bank/song-detail/view/356-here/
and listen to the song.
Kind regards, Reny
PS:I wish you to visit this beautiful town and I send this photo of Bath:

Graiul animalelor (What the animals say)

Looking for the Romanian version of the song Old McDonald had a farm I found out this nice song. In our country children learn it when they are 6-7 years old while learning about the animals and what they say.

Old McDonald has a farm (Romanian version)

This is the Romanian version. I hope you will like it. Valerica

Very popular Polish song for children

"We are dwarfs" is a very popular Polish song for children.You can sing and dance showing words this song.So-let's try !

Polish version "Old Mc Donald had a farm"

«Old McDonald had a farm» in Portuguese

Thanks for the 2 versions, Reny.

In Portugal, we also have a lot of musical animals.
The music is the same, the lyric wants to say the same but the human being in the story has a different name: Manel.
The title song is «Na quinta do tio Manel».

Here we go!...

"Old McDonald had a farm" in Turkish

Hi, dear all! I'd like to share the Turkish version of "Old McDonald had a farm".

Noi suntem muzicanti voiosi

Hi, Betina. I talked to my pupils and we decided that the song NOI SUNTEM MUZICANTI VOIOSI is similar to the song you published.

I'll try a translation for you.

We are happy musicians

And we know how to play

We can play the violin

And it sounds like that: tim, tim....

Than is about a trumpet, a guitar. There is another longer version where is a drum, too.

The promissed lyric

Marta asked me the lyric of the song «Master Andrew's shop».
I'm posting it now.
Well, it's not the lyric itself but its idea, ok?

It was at Master Andrew's shop
that i bought a little fife
tiro-liro-lito a little fife

oh ola oh ola
it was at Master Andrew's shop (repeat)

It was at Master Andrew's shop
that i bought a little piano
pim pim pim a little piano
tiro-liro-lito a little fife

oh ole oh ole
it was at Master Andrew's shop (repeat)

It was at Master Andrew's shop
that i bought a little drum
tum tum tum a little drum
pim pim pim a little piano
tiro-liro-lito a little fife

oh ole oh ole
it was at Master Andrew's shop (repeat)

... an then...
a little bell

I post now a different video with this song.
Do you have a children's song like this?

John's ballon

This is the story in the portuguese version of the 1st children's song in the portuguese presentation.
I'm happy because we already conclued that this music is known in different countries.

John's ballon
rises, rises through the air
The boy is happy when he sings

But the wind blowing
takes the ballon up in the air
Then John gets whimper

"Lightly Row"

Here is one more version of this song, "Lightly Row":
Lightly row, lightly row,
O'er the glassy waves we go!
Smoothly glide, smoothly glide,
On the silent tide.

Let the winds and waters be
Mingled with our childish glee.
Sing and float, sing and float
In our little boat!

Far away, far away,
Echo in the rock at play;
Calleth not, calleth not,
To this lonely spot.

Only with the seabirds' note
Shall our happy music float.
Lightly row, lightly row,
In our little boat!

I hope that you will like it.
Kind regards, Reny

"The Blackbird"

It's one of the best Bulgarian children's song.
By the way, there is the same German song, "Little hans" in English:
Little Hans goes alone
Out into the wide world.
Looking great with stick and hat
He is in good spirits.
But his mother cries so much,
For she no longer has little Hans.
Thus the child changes its mind,
Turning back home, swiftly.

Visit the website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hänschen_klein and learn more about it.
Kind regards, Reny
