Girls and Boys Come Out to Play
Belive it or not - this nursery rhyme is over 300 years old! But it is still popular. And we think that is more actual than ever these days. Because it is a reminder that the kids still need to go out in the street to play together in real life. Videogames and iPads are not enough...
Tip: Do as the kids in this song - bring the children to the playfield when the moon is full and the sky is clear. Find a place with no streetlights and feel the magic! The children (and you) will love it :)
Girls and Boys Come Out to Play - Lyrics
Girls and boys come out to playThe moon doth shine as bright as day
Leave your supper, and leave your sleep
And join your playfellows in the street.
Come with a whoop, and come with a call
Come with a good will or not at all
Up the ladder and down the wall
A penny loaf will serve you all.
Girls and boys come out to play
The moon doth shine as bright as day
Leave your supper, and leave your sleep
And join your playfellows in the street.
