Here are step-by-step instructions for song-related puppets, toys, jewelry, games, and other projects.

He is designed to make some very interesting noises! Whichever of the twenty adorable projects you choose, you’re sure to have a rollicking good time!

The Horn Book Guide

“Taking her inspiration from such songs as ‘The Farmer in the Dell,’ Ross creates twenty crafts, many of which have clever moving parts (e.g., ‘the old man is snoring’ uses an inflated balloon to create snoring sounds). Color drawings illustrate the steps.”
