The Enormous Turnip

"The Enormous Turnip" is an original song based on a Russian progressive story in which more and more characters collaborate to pull up an enormous turnip. The song teaches an important lesson about teamwork — and how even a tiny bit of extra help can make an effort successful! The song was written and recorded Benjamin Weiner as part of "Once Upon a Time" at Camp Sparkler, Sparkler Learning's summer learning program for families with children 0-5 years old.
