BREAD IN ALL DIFFERENT SHAPES AND SIZES
Bread is made from flour, which comes from wheat. But there are many
different types of bread. There are white loaves and brown loaves; round
rolls and finger-shaped rolls; sweet breads and spicy breads; and buns
with currants in or icing on top.
Do you know this song?
Five currant buns in a baker's shop
Round and fat with a cherry on the top
Along came (choose a friend's name)
With a penny one day
Bought a currant bun and took it away
Four currant buns in a baker's shop...
(keep going until you have no buns left!)
