It does not sound like O Tannenbaum.<br /><br />We've used Geography Songs for years, but that Canada song drives me crazy, because it doesn't make any geographical sense for Canadian kids. We need another song that goes west to east, like the U.S. songs. <br /><br />Jolanthe, your kids might enjoy the You-tube song Canada in My Pocket--it teaches the meaning of Canadian coins. Sort of. Misrepresents the Bluenose on the dime (it wasn't a trading ship), but it's fun anyway. Also look up the website tvokids.org if you want to know what Ontario kids are into watching after school. (Warning: this is not a Christian station, it's more like PBS, so right now it's all Halloween.)<br /><br />And right now in Ontario we're still having pretty nice fall weather--bit windy though.Mama Squirrelhttp://www.deweystreehouse.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2830748451146807697.post-28347302273347854672010-10-26T21:05:19.917-04:002010-10-26T21:05:19.917-04:00Just wanted to make sure you knew that on your PDF...Just wanted to make sure you knew that on your PDF sheet where you label a map of Canada, Ottawa was spelled incorrectly.Alianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2830748451146807697.post-17462919451944705162010-10-26T18:18:41.959-04:002010-10-26T18:18:41.959-04:00One more thing.

It doesn't snow there, well it rarely does. Our country is very diverse in it's people and places.

That's my theory on why there's not many people.<br /><br />And for some reason I always in my mind sing "O Canada" to the same tune as "O Tannenbaum," I have no clue if it's the correct tune, but that's what it is in my mind.Ticiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17970101432834731044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2830748451146807697.post-37071814198860546032010-10-26T06:52:15.434-04:002010-10-26T06:52:15.434-04:00I can sing the geography song right along with you...I can sing the geography song right along with you. We used this when our 26 year old, ahem, was in second grade. We can still sing it today.
