This simple and funny dance was my favorite from my childhood! And today I have a pleasure to share a video of the dance LetkaJenkka (Летка Енка) with you:
Really, we have about three version of songs with this music. They all are excellent lyrics for this one is by Michail Plytskovsky … In this song cricket, polecat, 10 little frogs, moth all together are jumping happily with music what grasshopper plays for them on fiddle.
