Every night my daughters (ages 4 and 5) ask us all kinds of interesting questions. Some of them are about things that I havent believed about in a long time. Some of them arent simple to address in a way that they can understand.

After dinner and my somewhat unsuccessful explanation of onomatopoeia, I turned to YouTube to try to discover a video that might help my children much better comprehend what onomatopoeia is. Thats where I found this brief and adorable music video about onomatopoeia. Ill caution you, the song is type of catchy (if youre a five-year-old)..

On an associated note, Next Vista for Learning hosts a terrific video description of onomatopoeia. The video was produced by a high school student for among Next Vistas many student video development contests.
