How to use this song with your child

  1. 1

    Make “singen” the word of the day

    This song repeats “singen” (to sing) on 10 lines. Use it once or twice during the day outside the song, and let your child correct you if you get it wrong.

  2. 2

    Split the parts

    Once the song is familiar, you sing the English lines and your child sings the German ones, then swap. It turns listening into speaking.

  3. 3

    Make it a routine

    At 2:31, play it once a day at the same moment for a week. Do every move the song calls out, and let your child be the leader the second time.
