Learning with Music - musical fun from the start for children
This is the 5th level of early years songs for young children new to singing. We’re adding more notes and rhythms, helping them to recognise the sequence of scales, and division of musical beats. And all of this, through songs and games!

There Was A Jolly Miller
There was a jolly miller and he
Lived by himself

Made his wealth
With one hand in his pocket and the
Other in his bag
When the wheel went ’round he
Made his grab
