The itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout.
Down came the rain, and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun,and dried up all the rain.
So, the itsy bitsy spider went up the spout again.
Does this bring you your childhood memories? Well, for me, it brings my memories of my time in Korea when I was teaching English to young children. This spider song was one of my favorites as you can do it with some body movements and the kids just loved it. Just like anywhere else in the world, there are many children's songs in Korea. Today I brought three that might be suitable for anyone who's just starting to learn Korean.
Let's learn and sing : Korean Children's Songs
반짝반짝 작은 별
If you know the twinkle, twinkle, little star, this is the Korean version.
