Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:05):
Welcome to Music to our Ears, where we share some
interesting tidbits and stories related to our favorite Lingo kids songs.
Today is going to be so much fun. Do you
know what we're doing? No? No, We're going to visit ducks.

(00:26):
Quack if you want to come along. Quack quack quack
quack crack quack quack quack Clackoper, Let's go to the farm.
Waddle after me. Here we are Hmmm, do you see
any ducks, Lisa, No, I don't. We can use prepositions

(00:51):
words that describe location to help us. For example, maybe
ducks are in the barn. Let's take a look. Oh sorry,
miss cow, we are looking for ducks over there in

(01:12):
the corner. Good I Elliott? One, two, three, four, Five
ducks in the corner. Some are brown, others have green
shiny heads. The brown ones are girl ducks. They are
called hens or ducks. Guess what the green headed ones

(01:33):
are you got it, Philly boy ducks. We call them drakes.
So there are five ducks in the barn, there must
be more. Let's go over the hill. I bet there
are more ducks in the pond. Last one to the

(01:55):
pond is a silly goose. Whoa you are fast. I
guess I'm the silly goose. Look over there in the
middle by that rock, lots and lots of ducks paddling around.

(02:19):
Do you know a group of ducks in the water
is called a raft of ducks? Isn't that funny? Hey?
Some are swimming back to shore. They are headed this way.
Here they come, they're getting out of the water. It's
a mama duck with four babies. Oh, I mean ducklings.

(02:44):
That pond is pretty chilly, but ducks are specially designed
so their feet never get cold and their feathers are waterproof.
They are as comfy in the water as they are
out of it. The duck walk behind their mother in
a straight line. Where do you think they are going? Oh,

(03:08):
it seems they are going to rest in the shady grass.
Ducks can sleep with one eye open. That way, the
mother duck can nap and make sure her ducklings are safe.
We don't want to disturb them. Who's hungry, even hungry me.
If we walk back towards the barn, we can stop

(03:30):
in the farmhouse for some lunch. Yes, music is well,
then let's sing a song about five little ducks going
in over and back. Ready, here we go.

and far away. Mother dug said, which only four little
ducks came back. Four little ducks ware now one day
over the hills and far away. Mother doug said.
