We spent some of term 1 reading stories and playing games with face parts in. We will learn this new song over the next few weeks to ensure we don’t forget the face parts we learned, see blog post for a refresher on the face song. (I have also added a video of the face song on this page for you).
It kind of goes to the ‘Skip to My Lou my darling’ tune, but here is my little girl singing this one for you. Animals and lyrics below. Older kids can write their own version using other animals, face/ body parts and different adjectives.
Here are the lyrics for you in characters, followed by pinyin and translation for non-Mandarin speaking parents:
