干货丨如何给孩子选英文歌——实践验证,这几首英文儿歌会让孩子爱上英文

钱儿妈,中国传媒大学播音系毕业,中英文双硕士。

专业纪录片英文翻译,从事英文教学15年,专注儿童双语启蒙与教育10年。


每天放学后去课外课的路上,都是钱儿最欢乐的时间。他可以指挥我或韩先生在车里放各种他喜欢听的内容。通常是听一会儿英文儿歌,听一会儿中文故事,然后再听英文儿歌,再听会儿英文故事。


听歌的时候,他会摇头晃脑地大声跟着唱。时间久了,我和韩先生也能唱个八九不离十。韩先生时常感慨,国外小盆友听的歌,太好听了!


我原先每周给钱儿组合10首儿歌,这一周时间里他会反复地听,金子妞妞出生后,就跟着哥哥一起听,因为对于小baby来说,这些欢快的节奏,已经是非常好的磨耳朵素材。


按周更新了大约一个月,钱儿开始抗议,他说有些歌一周时间不够,还没有听过瘾,所以现在基本都是他提出要换了,我再换一组,更换周期没有固定时间。但通常他要换的时候,前面听的这些,已经能自己唱下来了。


金子同学还没有语言表达能力,但每天在家听这些儿歌时,我会抱着她连唱带跳,她特别高兴地手舞足蹈。一段时间之后,每当前奏响起,她就瞪大眼睛,一脸开心的样子。若是我们全家都在车上听的话,她就躺在提篮里一会看看各种吼各种high的哥哥,一会儿看看随声附和的我,欢实得不得了。


国外的儿童初听时,会有惊艳的感觉,当然不是因为唱得多好,也不是歌词有多精妙,而相反是因为无厘头的歌很多,还会有很多没有实际意义的歌词,但歌中满满溢出的那种天马行空的自由与无所顾忌的快乐,与我们从小唱的中文儿歌有着天上地下的差别。


创作者这种崇尚自由与快乐的创作心态,真的值得我们学习。听多了你就会发现,他们的创作不拘泥于任何一种形式,可以突破人的心理界限,拓展到无限可能。


歌曲虽由成年人创作,但他们真正站在孩子的角度,把许多生活中不可能的事情,写成歌词,与孩子那种毫无定式,创造力无限的思维方式无缝对接。


听着儿歌里的旋律和和声,你就能听到歌者的状态,就觉得自己也是无限自由的,不知不觉间,微笑就会挂上嘴角。那种发自内心的开心,就这么不知不觉地发生了。


此外,这些好的儿歌,几乎都具备神曲一样的洗脑功能,随孩子听多了,你会发现自己洗衣服做饭,擦地喂奶时,也不知不觉哼唱起来,自己也成为了一个孩子样快乐的人。

The Ants Go Marching

这是一首关于小蚂蚁行军的歌。旋律欢快,内容好玩,唱起来押韵又朗朗上口。


这首歌讲了蚂蚁们一起去行军,从1个1个走,逐渐变到10个10个一起走,这队形变化的,设想一下那个庞大的画面吧!


路上遇到下雨,所以小蚂蚁们要避雨。在这个过程中,作为主角的这只小蚂蚁总是状况百出,要么停下脚步吃手指,要么停下去系鞋带,要么停下捡棍子,反正是不能好好专心地走,哈哈~~


通过这首歌,孩子很轻松地就能把数字1-10学会。此外,如果有小朋友的表演活动,这也是一首非常适合选择的歌,会很可爱。

The ants go marching one by one.

Hoorah! Hoorah!

Willoughby Wallaby Woo


这是一首轻松幽默的歌,歌的第一段设定好了格式,Willoughby wallaby wee, an elephant sat on me.之后的每段都可以替换这句的最后两个词。


歌里唱了很多英文名字,所以其实它的原意是在很多孩子聚在一起时,每个人都能被喊到,让孩子们有很强的参与感。


另外,孩子可能不知道rhyme(押韵)怎么解释,但听这首歌,很容易建立一个基本的语感。


我开车带钱儿出去时,如果天气晴好,我们就打开窗子,让风吹散头发,然后跟着一起唱

Rat, tat, tat, tat, tat, tat, ta

La, la, la, la, la, la la,

Doodle loo, doodle loo, doodle loo, doodle loo

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba bum

感觉特别好,建议你也带孩子试试~~


Willoughby wallaby wee, an elephant sat on me

Willoughby wallaby woo, an elephant sat on you

Willoughby wallaby Wustin, an elephant sat on Justin

Willoughby wallaby Wania, an elephant sat on Tania


Willoughby wallaby Wenny, an elephant sat on Jenny

Willoughby wallaby Woel, an elephant sat on Joel

Willoughby wallaby wong, I hope that you sing along

Willoughby wallaby wee, a sing along along with me

Rat, tat, tat, tat, tat, tat, ta

La, la, la, la, la, la la,

Doodle loo, doodle loo, doodle loo, doodle loo

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba bum


Willoughby wallaby Wonnie, an elephant sat on Bonnie

Willoughby wallaby Wartin, an elephant sat on Martin

Willoughby wallaby Wusan, an elephant sat on Susan

Willoughby wallaby Wennis, an elephant sat on Dennis


Willoughby wallaby Wen, an elephant sat on Ken

And Willoughby wallaby Waffi, and elephant sat on Raffi

Willoughby wallaby willoughby, whoa! Look at that elephant sitting there

Willoughby wallaby, Willoughby wallaby, ba da ba da ba da ba da dum

Down By The Bay



这是另一首学压韵文字游戏的歌,也是旋律魔性的代表之一。沿着海湾来到西瓜地,会有各种可爱的事发生。




每段的最后一句中的两个名词压韵:

鹅(goose)亲驼鹿(moose)

鲸(whale)有带圆点的尾巴(tail)

苍蝇(fly)戴领带(tie)

熊(bear)梳头发(hair)

羊驼(llamas)吃睡衣(pyjamas)

每个都是搞笑又可爱的场景。


不用纠结孩子记住了多少,也不要追着孩子去讲哪个词是熊,哪个词是羊驼,只管多听就好了。


Down by the bay, where the watermelons grow,

Back to my home, I dare not go,

For if I do, my mother will say...

'Did you ever see a goose, kissing a moose,

Down by the bay?' 




Down by the bay, where the watermelons grow,

Back to my home, I dare not go, 

For if I do, my mother will say... 

'Did you ever see a whale, with a polka dot tail,

Down by the bay?' 


Down by the bay, where the watermelons grow,

Back to my home, I dare not go,

For if I do, my mother will say...

'Did you ever see a fly, wearing a tie,

Down by the bay?' 


Down by the bay, where the watermelons grow,

Back to my home, I dare not go,

For if I do, my mother will say...

'Did you ever see a bear, combing his hair,

Down by the bay?' 


Down by the bay, where the watermelons grow,

Back to my home, I dare not go, 

For if I do, my mother will say... 

'Did you ever see llamas, eating their pyjamas,

Down by the bay?' 


Down by the bay, where the watermelons grow,

Back to my home, I dare not go, 

For if I do, my mother will say... 

'Did you ever have a time, when you couldn't make a rhyme,

Down by the bay?' 


Down by the bay, where the watermelons grow,

Back to my home, I dare not go, 

For if I do...

Seven Days Of The Week 


特别简单的一首关于一周七天的歌,里面每次唱到Today's name is ~~,这个留白的地方,是让孩子说唱歌这天是周几的。


比如周一上学路上,当歌中唱到Today's name is ~~,钱儿就会大喊:Monday!!然后接上后面It will be a fun day.这将是快乐的一天,孩子们得有多开心啊!


歌的结尾还会重复一次Today's name is ~~让孩子再重复一次这个词就好。所以这一首歌,其实可以当七首歌听,因为每天歌词都不同,哈哈~~


Sunday,

Monday,

Tuesday,

Wednesday,

Thursday,

Friday,

Saturday.

These are the days of the week.

Seven days of the week.


Today's name is ~~. It will be a fun day.

We can sing and learn to say.

Today's name is ~~. 


Sunday,

Monday,

Tuesday,

Wednesday,

Thursday,

Friday,

Saturday.

These are the days of the week.

Seven days of the week.

Let's all have a great week!

Learning Letter Sounds 

最近很多妈妈都想开始给孩子学自然拼读,我建议,自然拼读做一些基本的准备再开始。


首先是要有一定的词汇量,其次就是要有一定的理解能力和接受拼读的能力。


学习自然拼读时,孩子首先要明白的就是字母(letter),有letter name(字母名字)和letter sound(字母读音)之分的。


比如字母A,它的名字是【ei】,而它的读音是【?】。


在给孩子进行自然拼读的准备过程中,讲清楚这件事可能未必容易,但听这首歌就很容易明白并能牢牢记住啦!
