Help i'm stuck!!! the playgroup has been invited to attend our church for Easter Sunday service. We are in the process of creating our Easter bonnets and we will have a parade in the church. I thought it would be nice if we could all learn a song linked to Easter and share it with the church on the Sunday. Have you any ideas?
