"Five Little Frogs" from Singable Songs for the Very Young, by Raffi
Amazon.com Review: Though recorded in the 1970s, this classic Raffi album is still one of the children's troubadour's bestsellers. The gentle, joyful style; simple musical arrangements; and easy-to-follow up-front vocals have made Singable Songs for the Very Young a favorite among tiny tots, parents, and preschool teachers.
"Frog Wen Ta Courtin'", "Shoo Fly" and "Blue Tail Fly" from Story Time
Audiocassette tape, published by Barnes & Noble, catalog #18284
"Over in the Meadow: An Old Counting Rhyme"; book and tape from Scholastic
From the publisher: Welcome to a lush meadow bustling with activity, where one turtle digs, two fish swim, three bluebirds sing, and so on to ten fireflies that shine in the night. Keats's collage-style illustrations perfectly complement this classic Appalachian counting rhyme, which is also a popular song for toddlers.
