5.0 out of 5 stars You will never get this song out of your head, April 28, 2006

This review is from: Row, Row, Row the Boats: A Fun Song About George Washington Crossing the Delaware (Fun Songs) (Library Binding)

This whole series of fun songs about American History by Michael Dahl are great! My 3 year old daughter loves them as much as my 5 year old son. Since they love to sing, they learn the words very quickly and sing them OFTEN. But, it is very rewarding when we are reading another book about Washington crossing the Delaware and my son remembers that it was Christmas and that they were fighting the British!

This review is from: Row, Row, Row the Boats: A Fun Song About George Washington Crossing the Delaware (Fun Songs)

Although this book is geared to teaching younger elementary students about the Revolutionary War, the cartoon-style pictures may be appropriate for older elementary. By using a song, with words that teach the events of the war, children have a different vehicle for learning the information.
