Here is her favourite childhood song along with the Playsongs version of it with roses and daisies from Rachel Fuller's illustrations for Sleepytime Playsongs.

My favourite song as a child was Ring A Ring a Roses because I loved being tickled ~ or running away from being tickled and being chased and tickled. It was my mother who tickled me most, but I vaguely remember my Grandfather also tickling us.

My children loved Wheels on the Bus which I could make go on for hours with lots of invented verses.
