Here is a sample of what we counted using Bitstrips:
We composed a beautiful song called, FAMILIES AROUND THE WORLD. Please click above and enjoy!
Families around the world
Moms, and dads, and boys, and girls
Some things are different
Some the same
Families around the world
In Senegal the children play
they go to school to learn
In Mexico the children sing
they celebrate and cheer
In England parents go to work
they have bills to pay
In India a father works hard
farming everyday (CHORUS REPEATS)
Families mine salt in Peru
then play with guinea pigs
In China Icy Chagan Lake
where men ice fish with nets
In Canada the children eat
moose and bannock too
People in Australia
hunt rabbits and wild boar (CHORUS REPEATS)
Children through the USA
have bedrooms full of toys
West Bank families go to sleep
outdoors and on the ground
Shadow puppets tell a tale
of ventures in Thailand
In Germany a puppeteer
recounts a fairy tale (CHORUS REPEATS)
In Kenya water’s hard to find
it hardly ever rains
In the Arctic polar bears
walk on ice and snow
Every town in this big world
needs comfort and safety
And if we try to get along
it’s a better place to be! (CHORUS REPEATS)
