The Book of Call & Response (First Steps in Music series)

Whether sung around a campfire, in the classroom, or on a family road trip, call and response songs, in which a leader sings a phrase and a group sings back a reply, are an engaging interactive experience for kids. Historically, the songs in this collection were sung by workers in the field or sailors on ships, helping to pass the time and keep the workers in sync with one another. Kids today will love these classic folk songs because the easy call-and-response style takes no time to learn, letting everyone join in and enjoy these accessible and lively songs.
