~ Singing - The Tale of the Sun & the Moon ~

The children love to sing songs.. (Well, certain types of songs that is ^_^ ) I happen to find this song on Youtube and they love it soooo much that I used to sing to them almost everyday at bedtime. Denver and Gladys love the video and tune that they can sing on their own now. :D

THE TALE OF THE SUN AND THE MOON (By Eric Herman)

The Sun was in his bathing suit, the moon in her pyjamas.

They played all day until the two were called in by their mamas.

The Sun went home and climbed in bed. His mama sang a tune.

And soon the Sun was fast asleep and dreaming of the Moon.

The Moon decided not to go. Instead she stayed outside.

She danced and played and laughed and sang, til she was sleepy-eyed.

When morning came, the Sun arose and went outside to play.

But could not find his friend, the Moon, who slept inside all day.

So now these two are best of friends apart by dark and light.

The Sun turns in at evenfall. The Moon comes out at night.

The shining Moon sees no sunlight. The Sun sees no moonbeams.

But when they both are fast asleep, theyre in each others dreams

Another of my favourites by Eric Herman is "The Elephant Song" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cBtid-v_JE&feature=channel. It is so Funny and Cute! The children are always amazed with it. :D For more Eric Herman songs, it is on http://www.erichermanmusic.com/

During National Day, Gladys will follow her Gor Gor and sing "We Are Singapore" and "Count on Me Singapore". :D Well, the common thing that they do is they like to sing out VERY LOUD that I always ask them if they are singing or shouting. Hhahahha.
