On the bridge of Avignon / Sur le pont d'Avignon

I love singing French songs with my kids (even though I can't sing very well). Kids are so receptive to songs!
Here is On the Bridge of Avignon / Sur le pont d'Avignon.


Sur le pont d'Avignon
On y danse, on y danse
Sur le pont d'Avignon
On y danse tout en rond

1 Les beaux messieurs font comme ça
Et puis encore comme ça.

Refrain

2 Les belles dames font comme ça
Et puis encore comme ça.

Refrain.

The site has other French songs and it has the music you can sing to as well.

Here's an adorable video of kids dancing to that song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ya8EZ5092RU&playnext_from=TL&videos=urZV1rSZQ-o

I taught an even simpler version of the dance to four-year-olds today, and they loved it!
