Apples and Bananas - Food Songs

 Apples and Bananas - Food Songs

This great little song is not only fun, but a great way to help toddlers learn the sounds of the vowels.  After singing the first verse normally you sing it five more times, each time replacing the vowel sounds in the words “eat,” “apples” and “bananas” with the long vowel sounds of A, E, I, O and U.
