Lyrics
(Folk song)
Five fat turkeys are we
We slept all night in a tree
When the cook came around, we couldn’t be found
And that’s why we’re here you see!

I teach adult English language learners, we have a program for their pre school age children too. I like to teach the adults the same songs the children are learning so they can sing them together. It helps the adults practice their pronunciation skills and English reading skills and it’s a great family bonding tool. My degree is in music therapy, so I’ll use music any way I can to help my students learn to speak and understand English.
That’s great! Putting words to music helps learning anything! 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
