Our Animal Sounds Song is a fun sing along song for kids that introduces eight animals and their sounds in the English language.
The kids repeat each line of the verse, which makes the song suitable for all ages and language levels (preschool, kindergarten, elementary school, young learners of English / esl / efl).
Sing and clap your hands to this engaging tune!

Fun idea for teachers: create a long "train" with your students and "travel" around the classroom! You can also make the train grow longer with each verse, pretending that more and more animals are hopping on on the way (during the chorus, singing "Hop on the train!").

Here are the eight animals in the song, along with their sounds. Of course, you can continue the song on your own, adding more animals!

cow - moo
dog - woof
cat - meow
pig - oink
mouse - squeak
horse - neigh
bird - tweet
sheep - baa
