[HANASHIR:9585] Re: Apples and Honey (and old dances)

[Yonatan Koch <listmember...>]

Hi there,

There is a song by Julie Silver called Apples and Honey. This is on her 
recording "Together" The lyrics are simple and enjoyed by most of the younger 
children.

The chorus is like: 

Apples and honey, it may sound funny
You can make the new year sweet and sunny
eeating apples and honey.

That's all I remember, sorry I couldn't help more.
Jewish Music and Soundswrite definitly have it and I don't know of any others. 

Good luck with your first day of teaching. It will be great as long as you are 
relaxed. I learned this the hard way
