Your toddler will love this version of 'Five Little Ducks'
As the kids settle back into their school routines, some Grade R teachers are asking them to practise their rhymes. We loved this version of 'Five Little Ducks' and had to share it with you.
It's officially the second week (sort of) of school, and the kids are getting back into the groove of their routines.
With homework in full swing, some parents might need a refresher on how to support their little ones in completing their homework. For Grade R learners, it looks like nursery rhymes and phonics practise are top of the list.
Speaking of nursery rhymes, one that got us thinking about music in new ways was featured in a mix by a toddler techno expert. Known for his ability to transform classic children's nursery rhymes into rave-worthy beats, DJ Lenny Pearce has taken baby raves to the next level.
In fact, he's behind "Singapore’s first EDM party for kids, where the beats drop and little ones dance the day away!"

Toddler techno is a fresh twist on classic nursery rhymes, turning them
into an energetic dance party. While it might seem a bit unconventional
for some parents, the buzz on social media suggests that kids absolutely
love it.
Music has long been a great way to soothe children, calming tantrums and easing anxiety. Plus, we think DJ Lenny Pearce has crafted the perfect playlist that parents can enjoy without wanting to pull their hair out!
One standout is his remix of 'Five Little Ducks', and we suggest you give it a listen before writing it off.
Check out some of the comments from the video below:
"I wish I could tag my toddler."
"I LITERALLY just put this in front of my toddler and he IMMEDIATELY started dancing!"
"Give me a Spotify link right now. This is exactly the compromise I need when driving."
"Why did my five year old immediately start jamming out. Lol your awesome for this. My son who is on the spectrum loves music especially with a beat. So as soon as he heard me play this he started dancing."

DJ Lenny Pearce is also a father and shared that he always tests his songs on his daughter first. She's his go-to "tester" – if she gives it the thumbs up, it’s ready for release on his streaming platform.
Watch the video below from Instagram, where he tries out 'Kuma the Monkey' with her.
