And the rhyme used: mamalisa.com/?t=ef&p=317&c=50 (althought the correct translation should be more like “an elephant was swinging on the web of a spider” than “an elephant stood on the web of a spider” but I guess it was a too long sentence for the song)
you know, there’s this ancient Mexica (not Mexican, Mexica [Me-shi-ca] were the first population in the latin american region later known as ‘New Spain’ and even later, known as Mexico) emperor who was devoted to the poetry, King “Nezahualcoyotl” who wrote one of the most very known poems in the history of Latin America, it goes something like this:
Amo el canto del Zenzontle
Pájaro de cuatrocientas voces
Amo el color del Jade
Y el enervante perfume de las flores
Pero amo más a mi hermano el hombre
It’s quite complex writing it as rhyme on english, but the literal translation would be also like this
I Love the sing of the Zenzontle
bird of four hundred voices
I love the color of the Jade
and the flowers is nerve-racking scent
but i love more more my brother, the men (or mankind, man, humanity)
i don’t know if this can be taken as a Nursery Rhyme, but it would be cool, maybe i can give myself a break of the icons (which are quite tricky to do as i want them to be perfect for dark and clear themes alike) since i have no good voice for rhymes and i’m a very shy lass XD (though sometimes i’m quite louder than i should be jiji) i’ll look for it already recorded, if not, well, captions are good means anyway.
Hi!
Very cute. I like the spider a lot and also the teenie weenie red bug that crawls from right to left. Sometimes bad color choice regarding the text (like gray text over gray pipe for instance).
Greetz!
Oh thanks a lot …I take all observations on board and will do my best to improve…You know I’ve never learnt animation at school or college so forum members like yourself are my teachers and I’m really grateful for that…
Hey very nice. I lost into my childhood.
My children are also learning in day care centers in Dubai.

A Scottish Nursery Rhyme
A wee man cam ower the heathery hill
Chappit at the door
Lifted the sneck
Dichted his feet
An walked awa in!
Walk over child’s head (with your fingers!)
Knock on their forehead
Lift their nose up
Draw side of finger across top lip
Put finger in child’s mouth.
Not aware of a tune for this one but you could make one up or get them to!
