lyrics

Yes, we are the band, the _ _ _ _ band!
And we play loud! And we play soft!
We sound so very grand!

Playing the maracas, let’s shake them all around,
Playing the maracas, let’s make a happy sound!

Yes, we are the band, the _ _ _ _ band!
And we play loud! And we play soft!
We sound so very grand!

Playing on the drum, Let’s play it loud and strong,
Playing on the drum, Let’s play our happy song!

Yes, we are the band, the _ _ _ _ band!
And we play loud! And we play soft!
We sound so very grand!

Playing on the woodblocks, Let’s tap, tap, tap away,
Playing on the woodblocks, Let’s have some fun today!

Yes, we are the band, the _ _ _ _ band!
And we play loud! And we play soft!
We sound so very grand!

Playing on the cymbals, let’s crash, crash, crash away,
Playing on the cymbals, let’s have some fun today!

Yes, we are the band, the _ _ _ _ band!
And we play loud! And we play soft!
We sound so very grand!

Little Minstrels New Zealand

I love music - I love kids! Little Minstrels all began with a few classes at a preschool in 2005. Since then it has grown into my part-time job and full-time passion, developing my own teaching programme and writing and recording songs to suit. These songs have stood the test of time and have been loved by the preschoolers I teach. I hope your chidren enjoy them too! ... more
