A Tale about Folk Tales

The theme for this years Annual Programme for STD 3 was 'Folk Tales Around The World.' 
It was fun to engage the children with skits , songs and dances connected to folk tales from all around the world. Folk tales around the world not only entertain but also teach us values for life. They make us realize that whether the story is from India or any other place in the world, they inspire us to lead a better life. They connect us with their universal emotions.

This is song sung to the tune of the song- I am a Barbie Girl.......in my Barbie world.

Folk tales bring us joy
And play a vital role,
Life's much better
When we're all together.

Learn values for life,
Reduces all your strife,
Imagination,
Stories bring elation.

Come,come here now,
Time for a story,
ooh,oohoooooo,
 (Repeat Chorus)

Stories teach of hope,
In the fantasy world,
We learn to grow, develop
And aspire.

Give us a goal, reach our soul,
Give the power to think,
Help us all, bear the fall,
Slowly, slowly.

You can read, you can feel,
If you say, they're always yours.


Folk tales bring us joy,
And play a vital role,
Life's much better,
When we're all together.

Learn values for life,
Reduces all your strife,
Imagination,
Stories bring elation.


Come,come here now,
Time for a story,
ooh,oohoooooo,
 (Repeat Chorus)

Come,come here now,
Time for a story,
ooh,oohoooooo,
 (Repeat Chorus)


To conclude, stories have the power to change our lives and change the world for the better. Folk tales are relics, part of an un-discovered , pre-existing world.
