canzoncine in inglese

Come si comportano i vostri bambini quando siete in auto? Si annoiano? Vogliano fare un gioco o cantare una canzonzina? Potrebbe essere una occasione per cantare in inglese.

Una delle canzoni per bambini più popolari in italiano è “Nella Vecchia Fattoria”. I bambini partecipano imitando i versi degli animali. Se sono due o più bambini si gioca assumendo a turno il ruolo di chi nomina l’animale.

La versione inglese di questa famosa canzoncina è “Old McDonald had a farm”. Possiamo utilizzarla per ripassare i nomi degli animali, ma attenzione: il loro verso in inglese spesso cambia da come lo pronunciamo in italiano.  Se viaggiando utilizzate un tablet per intrattenere i bambini, questo video sarà molto utile per farvi compagnia. Pronti per il karaoke?
