When elephants go for a walk, the trees must be tall; otherwise, they bump their heads. Fortunately, there are gaps on the left and right of the trees, allowing the animals to pass through. The bridges also need to be high so that the elephants can fit underneath without bending down! And just think about how big the mountains are that they climb and the rivers in which they bathe! The children sing the playful song with strong rhythmic emphasis. They can stomp and feel as big and strong as the funny giants. This journey takes them through steppes and jungles, along rivers, and up mountains. But wait! What awaits at the end of an adventurous hiking day, for elephants just like for children? The little ones must go to sleep. As night falls over the wandering elephants, the little singers can show that they can also sing very softly, addressing the question of what kind of beds the little elephants like to sleep in, without crying at all. And perhaps the child of the evening, just like the little elephants, will also snuggle into their own bed without crying. The children's song is of anonymous authorship and is often known only by its first verse as a canon. However, it has five verses that describe the elephants' walk and always offer a humorous solution when things get a bit tight. Singing loudly and robustly, skillfully mimicking the elephants' stomping – what a delightful circle game, what fun for singing and playing! The board book for children aged 2 and up is humorously illustrated, and the music notes are included with the book.
