- ♪ Hello, everyone ♪ ♪ It's time to sing a song ♪ Hello, friends, welcome to music time.

In today's music time, we are going to go on an imaginative journey.

We're going to use our make believe to go to a far away land, where there is a big giant, a castle up high in the clouds, and a small boy with a bean in his hand.

Can you guess what story we're going to make believe play with today? "Jack and the Beanstalk", are you excited? Let me tell you what we're going to do.

We're going to start off by meeting the three most important characters in our story, "Jack and the Beanstalk", then we're going to climb up the beanstalk, and finally, we're going to carefully explore the Giant's castle.

You will need your singing voice, your imagination, your listening ears, and you'll need your favourite teddy or toy to come with you.

You can pause the video now and go and collect your favourite teddy or toy.

Right, and everybody, can you use your imagination to pretend that we are in the garden and the beanstalk is going to go all the way up, high, high, high above us? Are you ready? Let's get walking around the beanstalk.
