Your child hears the U sound — uh! — again and again, sees the capital letter U, and watches the umbrella make the shape of the letter U. Then meets five U words right on the beat: up, under, upside-down, umpire and uncle.
What your child learns
- The letter U and its sound – uh
- U words: up, under, upside-down, umpire, uncle
- The shape of a capital U
- Joining in with a call-and-response chorus
How it goes
- Welcome to ABC Songs with Tardy
- U is for Umbrella
- Up, under, upside-down
- Up the stairs, under the table, umpire
- Uncle's hat — say it with me: uh!
- Look, it's a U — sing it again
- All five U words
The words
U! U! U! Uh, uh, uh! Here comes Nidra — it's U today!
U is for Umbrella, Umbrella, Umbrella! U is for Umbrella — uh, uh, U!
Up, up, up we go, under, under, down below, upside-down and round about, U is for Umbrella — pop it out!
Uh-uh-up the stairs, one, two, three, uh-uh-under the table, you and me, uh-uh-umpire says 'play!' U is for Umbrella — rainy day!
Turn it over, upside down, a big round cup to catch the rain that's falling down, upside-down, Umbrella — look, it's a U! (Splash!)
Uh-uh-uncle's hat, up it goes, uh-uh-under the covers, wiggle your toes, uh-uh-up and under, now you know, U is for Umbrella — raindrops, go!
Say it with me: uh! (uh!) Say it again: uh! (uh!) Point up high: uh! (uh!) Duck down under: uh! (uh!) Uh, uh, uh, uh — U! U! Umbrella!
Splash! Splash!
U is for Umbrella, Umbrella, Umbrella! U is for Umbrella — uh, uh, U! U is for Umbrella, Umbrella, Umbrella! U is for Umbrella — uh, uh, U!
Up, under, upside-down, umpire, uncle — U is for Umbrella...
