Old MacDonald Had a Farm

This beautifully illustrated version of Old MacDonald's farm is a night time favorite for both of my children, ages 4 and 2. Farmer MacDonald reaches into a chest in the barn to progressively equip the animals with musical instruments.Each page has a new animal receiving an instrument while the others are playing in the background. Each page's text has a picture of the animal being featured. This allows my 2 year old to participate by calling out the animal as well as reading the E-I-E-I-O's. The page after the grand finale shows the farm at night which elicits the response "Night, night farm". The end of the book also includes information on the origins of the "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" song.I have a fun time reading/singing this book, and the imaginative pictures are fun to look at as well.
