About Hansel And Gretel
Hansel and Gretel are left in a forest by their father, where they come across a witch who lives in a very strange house made of sweets and cakes. The witch invites the children in and begins to fatten them up, ready for eating! But Gretel outsmarts the witch and they escape.

amazing
year one love it nthey learn so quicklyn
Unbelievable and excellent!
I am working on using this resource with Reception children for a class assembly. We have not started acting yet but the children have been learning the songs. The script is amazing and the songs are so simple to learn and really catchy! I can't wait to do this assembly and the children get so excited and always start to dance when we practise. I cannot praise this resource enough. Every teacher should buy these song and story books. I have ordered these and the assembly one...I am sure i will be buying more soon!
Lessons sorted!
I use the Song and Story books with Kindergarten, Reception and Year 1 and they are such a God send! The children can achieve results quickly, learning the songs in the familiar framework of a well-known tale, and the older ones can begin to follow musical notation for the percussion parts. There is something for everyone and luckily there are 9 books in the series, one for each term for each age group!
