👋 Little Stars Plus 1: Hello, Hello!
The first lesson of Little Stars Plus, a Pre-A1 English course for children aged 4 to 6. Children meet Pip the puppet and the two routines that will open and close every lesson all year: the Hello Routine and the Goodbye Song. Both are sung to the tune of “Frère Jacques”. Pip shows three magic words with a gesture each and greets every child by name; a name-call ball game turns “Me!” into a happy answer; and a peek-a-boo game with three doors practises “Hello, Pip!” and “Bye-bye, Pip!”. Every word is a picture and a voice — tap it to hear it in British English. With teacher tips, ideas for online lessons, a 30-minute version and a Star Check picture game for home.
