Forty-two songs that are wonderful gems from around the world and across time—songs from various cultures and continents, new texts for old melodies, new settings for old poems, originals and more.  This is more than a songbook, however.  This book includes teaching ideas for each song and a chart of music concepts coordinating with the lessons in the “Eurhythmics for Young Children” series.

The piano accompaniments are intermediate level and the layout is clean.  The lyrics tickle children’s funny bones or introduce them to new and traditional poetry and varying meters.   Perhaps the greatest value of these songs is that children love them!
