👵 Grandma can read this to you. Tap play and listen, or follow along as each line lights up.

Three children sliding on the ice Upon a summer's day, As it fell out, they all fell in, The rest they ran away.

Oh, had these children been at school, Or sliding on dry ground, Ten thousand pounds to one penny They had not then been drowned.

Ye parents who have children dear, And ye, too, who have none, If you would keep them safe abroad Pray keep them safe at home.
