Title: This is a song about colors. Colors! You see 'em all around!

This is a song about colors
Colors!
You see 'em all around
Red on a stop sign
Green on a tree
Blue in the sky and sea


Anyone else remember this? What about other educational songs they played in early elementary school?

They had a record of this song when I was in kindergarten. We were given little blocks or pieces of paper of different colors and we were supposed to stand or sit when the song mentioned each color.

The earliest memory I have of something getting ruined at school is when I jumped real hard instead of standing up while this record was playing, which caused the record to skip, which apparently ruined it for good.

OMG.  I remember that song in nursery school. Speaking of standing up, I remember there was another song on the album that went "If you're wearing a <insert article of clothing> stand up, and we'd jump up if we were.  Singers sounded like The Kingston Trio.
