Singing while coloring
Where “Le fermier dans son pré” comes from, and how it is sung.
A choosing ring game: one child, the farmer, stands in the middle, and in each verse calls in another — the farmer takes a wife, the wife takes a child, the child takes a nurse, and so on down to the cat, the mouse and the cheese. It is the French cousin of “The Farmer in the Dell”, and children who know one pick up the other straight away.
