Counting Games and Rhythms for the Little Ones

Originally released in 1964, Counting Games and Rhythms for Little Ones builds on Ella Jenkins’ early recordings of supplementary classroom materials by showcasing the connections between basic math concepts and rhythm. This collection exemplifies Ella’s renowned ability to teach children basic concepts through songs and games and to provide resources for teachers. Skills such as memory, coordination, and vocal expression are all exercised in these simple, enjoyable activity songs. Here, the children from Lake Meadows Nursery School join Ella on classic counting songs including “One Potato, Two Potato,” “One, Two, Buckle My Shoe,” and “Eight Clay Pigeons.” Recommended for ages 2–4.
