Raffi's hilarious version of the classic song about strange events that happen down by the bay, where the watermelons grow...



Singing supports and encourages even the youngest child's speech and listening skills, which makes Down by the Bay perfect for early learning. In this friendly board book edition, irresistible art by Nadine Bernard Westcott depicts wonderfully amusing creatures such as a bear combing his hair, a goose kissing a moose, and a whale with a polka-dot tail. Very young children will find this book both entertaining and instructive in early language skills such as rhyme, rhythm, and repetition, and will delight in hearing it read or sung aloud to them.



This paperback edition includes the sheet music to encourage sing- and play-alongs!

This series of Raffi books are really good value for money. I have the Raffi CD's that include the songs to go with the stories and I use them together, as a Kindergarten Teacher. There is something calming and relaxing about these stories...they are simple, colourful and friendly...easy to read, yet they really capture children's imagination and hold their interest. There are lots of different characters for children to look for and recognise. Stories that revolve around the beach are always fun and have a 'holiday' mood. Raffi is a great author and really knows what appeals.
