Sing, move, and learn with "The Cows on the Farm" — an interactive circle time adapted song book sung to the familiar tune of "The Wheels on the Bus." Students build farm animal vocabulary and practice imitation and animal sounds while they follow along, move the interactive piece through the book, and add a matching animal piece to each page. A favorite for circle time, farm units, speech therapy, and special education.

As you sing, students match each animal and make its sound — moo, oink, and more — practicing vocal imitation and turning a beloved tune into hands-on language practice. The book also comes with a picture icon for a picture choice board, making it easy to include your AAC and nonverbal students in circle time.


🎵 The Power of Music & Songs for Language

Songs are one of the most powerful tools for building language — and this book puts that to work! Familiar, repetitive melodies make new vocabulary easier to remember, while the predictable "sing it again" structure builds anticipation, participation, and confidence. Music naturally boosts engagement, attention, and memory, and the steady rhythm gives emerging and nonverbal communicators a supported, low-pressure way to join in. For many students, a word they can sing becomes a word they can say.


🎶 Sample Text:

"The cows on the farm say, 'MOO MOO MOO,

MOO MOO MOO, MOO MOO MOO.'

The cows on the farm say, 'MOO MOO MOO,' all day long.

The pigs on the farm say, 'OINK OINK OINK…'"
