Over in the Meadow

Over in the Meadow is a popular folk song with many different variations. It has been illlustrated and published by many different people and the animals and actions vary in each one. In EVERY version, however, we meet different countryside animal mothers with their little ones. These are our favourite versions: Walker Books, Barefoot books, Child’s Play (Classic Books with Holes), and Penguin/Puffin.

The song goes from 1 to 10 so is excellent for learning / consolidating numbers and counting. It’s great for learning about animals, their habitats, actions and sounds too.
