King Kong Kitchie

The words in this song are catchy and rhythmical, making it a fun, boppy song to sing!

It's also great for:

  • Teaching the melodic elements 'low la' and 'low so'.
  • Preparing and practising cut common time.
  • Teaching the rhythmic element 'tum ti' (dotted crotchet, quaver; dotted quarter note, eighth note).
