Okay, it's time to get started.

Let me tell you what we're going to do today.

Today, we're going on our final adventure into the woodland.

We're going to start off by going for a walk with a fox.

We're going to walk all the way to the old man who lives in the cottage, and finally, we're going to finish singing with the songbird.

You will need your singing voice, your imagination, and your listening ears.

Now I met a fox the other day, and this fox went out for a walk in the night, listening to the words, and can you stop your feet in time to the beat, off we go.

A fox went out for a walk one night, he prayed to the moon to give him light, there were many a mile to walk that night before he reached the town.

Oh town! Oh town! There were many a mile to walk that night before he reached the town.

Now did you see I stopped walking when I said, "Oh town, oh town." When we say, "Oh town." You can do whatever move you like, you can do, oh town, oh town, or you might want to do, oh town, oh town, or maybe you want to jump around, whatever you want to do, but when we say oh town, you go for it and do your move.

This time you keep stamping in time to the beat, and I will sing.

Look at my feet, I'm going tar, tar, tar.

You can take really big footsteps around the room, like you're a tired creeping fox, let's creep around, ready? Off we go.

Tar, tar, tar, tar.

So, ♪ Safely we'll abide ♪ Means we'll live safely together in my little cottage.

This time, shall we bring some other animals into the home? The old man wants to rescue some other animals, so the next animal he's going to rescue is a fox.

♪ Ready ♪ ♪ Steady ♪ ♪ Off we go ♪ ♪ Little cottage in a wood ♪ ♪ Little old man at the window stood ♪ ♪ Saw a fox running by ♪ ♪ Knocking at the door ♪ "Help me, help me sir." He said.

But what animal are we going to see next in the woods? Now you don't find these animals in English woods, but you do find them in the American woods.

I couldn't not include teddy bear, could I? Teddy bear, we're going to imagine that we get bears in the woods, but in England, we don't get bears in woods, there're no bears.

Maybe some teddy bears, but no real big bears.

Okay teddy, are you ready? ♪ Little cottage in a wood ♪ ♪ Little old man at the window stood ♪ ♪ Saw a bear running by ♪ ♪ Knocking at the door ♪ "Help me, help me sir." He said.

♪ Or the farmer will bop my head ♪ ♪ Come little bear ♪ ♪ Come inside ♪ ♪ Safely we'll abide with the owl and the fox ♪ Do you have any teddies that you'd like to sing the song with? Or maybe you'd like to use your imagination to think of some other woodland animals that you can rescue into the cottage.

You can pause the video now and sing the song again.

Now, if you look up into the trees in the woodland, you might see some birds.

If you're very quiet, and you listen early in the morning or last thing before we go to bed, you'll definitely hear the songbirds singing.

Have you ever heard a bird singing? What did it sound like? The bird that I heard in the woodland, sang like this, Can you copy? Let's all sing It was a very silly bird.

Can you make up a little song? Why don't I play my ukulele, and you can go, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, or you can think of something different, are you ready? Ready, steady, off you go.

Can you do it again? Off you go.

Well done everybody.
