I Bought Me A Cat (Pentatonic)

Kids love this cumulative song. Particularly if they can improvise their own animals and animal noises.
Great for memory work - the more children who are able to add their own animals and noises the harder it gets to remember them all!
Fantastic for preparing and practising melodic element 'high do'!
Terrific for teaching the rhythmic element 'tum ti'!
