1. Run, run!
The garden is full of life. In the sunshine children run about, gaily and noisily. Outside on the street the poor blind man, with his barrel-organ, sings his sorrows.
2. Ring around the rosy
Let’s play ‘ring around the rosy’ says little Anna Maria; quickly they form a ring, singing and dancing.
3. March, little soldier!
at the other corner little Luiz Octavio comes marching by with his men in paper hats, carrying wooden guns.
4. Sleeping Time
the sun falls down the west, six times sings the cuckoo in the clock, the little girls sing lullabies, sing that their dollies must go to sleep before the bogey-man comes! 5. Hobby-horse
and now playtime is over and the children come prancing happily home on their wooden hobby-horses
