Frog in the meadow is a super simple and short song that can be learned in a flash. The kids I taught learned it quickly and got a kick out of it. Since it’s so short and simple, it’s a good song to get kids singing independently.

After I recorded this video, I attended a music education workshop with John Feierabend. He recommended that children choose body parts to “stir” with while singing the song. I think this is a great idea. It would add some more movement and make it fun for the kids- just picture kids stirring their foot or their elbow as they try singing this song 🙂

Here are the words to this one:

Frog in the meadow can’t get him out,

Take a little stick and stir him about.

Try it with your kids and let me know how it went!
