Five Little Birds by Siu Williams-Lemi

Five Little Birds is a bilingual English and Te Reo Maori sing-a-long book for preschoolers. This song is written by Loopy Tunes, who are a sister duo based in Christchurch that run live, interactive music and movement sessions
for preschoolers and their caregivers.

Walking through the forest and what do I see? / Hikoi ana i te wao me taku kitenga
Five little birds sitting in a tree / E rima nga manu i te rakau ra
One flew over to talk to me / I rere mai tetahi ki te korero mai na
I wonder who could it be / Ko wai ra te manu

Williams-Lemi, Siu: - Siu is one part of Loopy Tunes Preschool Music, a sister duo based in Christchurch that run live, interactive music and movement sessions for preschoolers and their caregivers. The vision for Loopy Tunes has always been to provide a space that offers these sessions as an affordable option for families within a local community. We currently run eight weekly outreach music sessions in Christchurch, visit many Preschools/Playgroups and perform at local children's events and functions.. Our music sessions have tamariki dancing and singing along to some of our original waiata, as well as some well-known tunes, including our Pēpi Mako song (Baby Shark in te reo Māori). We released our first music album, Kākāriki: Simply Us, in June 2019, and our first children's book E Rima Ngā Manu/Five Little Birds in October of the same year. We are yet again, excited, to bring you the second instalment of our Rainbow Children's Book Collection, Te Waiata Koa/The Happy Song. This has been a collaborative effort with Christchurch artist and illustrator, Rosina Cater - SOO many thank you's, for bringing yet another of our songs to life, so magically! Thank you also to Therese Fisher of KingFisher Publishing, Urupikia Minhinnick, for our beautifully translated Māori lyrics, and Imelda Morgan for setting the book up so creatively. We are so blessed to have these wāhine toa backing this project of ours - truly!!
