Milne has been admired and loved for many years. His works - like 'House at Pooh Corner' and 'When We Were Very Young' - are classic. We offer Milne poems now in a new form; give them new life. Children can now SING them, or ACT them out, or TALK & SING & ACT them out in CHILDREN'S MUSICALS . (See disclaimer notice.)    

'HOPPITY' and 'BAD BAD SIR BRIAN' are available now to schools
and to parents through schools or from the publisher - but only in
New Zealand, where Milne is in the Public Domain.

The songs are short, simple and melodic. Children love them just as teachers
and parents enjoy bringing them to their children. Here for example is 'Hoppity' as a poem (it is one of 12 songs in 'Hoppity' the musical).

'Hoppity' as a poem

Christopher Robin goes hoppity hoppity hoppity hoppity hop
Whenever I tell him politely to stop it he says he can't possibly stop!
If he stopped hopping he couldn't go anywhere!-
Poor little Christopher couldn't go anywhere!
That's why he always goes hoppity hoppity hop!

And here is 'Hoppity' as a SONG!  (Internet Explorer plays but Firefox sends to desktop!)

Then there's 'Hoppity' as a musical!   
In the musical, the song 'Hoppity' comes at the end of a little scene where John-Boy pesters his dad to take him with him to Spain. Dad is replying, 'No you  can't, John-boy. It's a business trip and they don't want small boys!'   

And can't you now just imagine other great Milne poems as songs - like
'At the Zoo', 'Halfway Down the Stairs', 'Jonathan Jo', 'Bad Sir Brian Botany'...?!
