Activities:
1) Have a go at listening to the song and learning it. The backing track features a male singing voice, so remember to sing it comfortably for your voice.
2) Have a go at writing your own lyrics about things you see in the clouds – can you fit your words to the same tune?
3) Do you play an instrument? Have a go at playing the melody.
