Nursery Rhyme Coding Challenge

[vorticalbox]

So I'm doing an extra thing for college called coderdojo https://coderdojo.com/.  So I came up with this

 

1. You can use any language

 

2. As complicated as you like

 

3. Program is to display a kids Nursery Rhyme or kids song.

 

So what do you guys think good idea for a class? 

 

Here is mine:

 

5 Little ducks, c#

using System;using System.Collections.Generic;using System.Linq;using System.Text;using System.Threading.Tasks;namespace LittleDucks{    class duck    {        public int number = 5;        public void count()        {            Console.WriteLine("{0} Little ducks", number);        }        public void lost ()        {            if (number != 0)            {                number--;            } else            {                number = 5;            }                               }        public void back()        {            Console.WriteLine("Came swimming back.");        }    }    class baby : duck    {        public void swim()        {            Console.WriteLine("Went swimming one day.");            Console.WriteLine("Over the hills and far away.");        }    }    class mother : duck    {        public void quack()        {            Console.WriteLine("Mother Duck Said");            Console.WriteLine("'Quack quack quack'");        }    }    class Program    {        static void Main(string[] args)        {            duck myDuck = new duck();            baby babyDuck = new baby();            mother motherDuck = new mother();            do            {                myDuck.count();                babyDuck.swim();                motherDuck.quack();                myDuck.lost();                myDuck.count();                myDuck.back();                Console.ReadKey();                Console.Clear();            } while (myDuck.number > 0);            myDuck.count();            babyDuck.swim();            motherDuck.quack();            myDuck.lost();            myDuck.count();            myDuck.back();            Console.ReadKey();        }    }}

Feel free to post your own

Can you post an example / examples of what it outputs?

 

Edit: Sorry, just looked at it again, thought it randomised. :0/

 

But post the output anyway?

Does ripping the words straight from a website count?

import urllib.request, reprint(re.findall('Star</h2><span style="background-color:transparent;do_recalc:1;">(.*)</span><h2 style="background-color:transparent;font-size:24px;font-weight:bold;">Jack',urllib.request.urlopen(urllib.request.Request('http://www.nurseryrhymes.com/',headers={'User-Agent':'as'})).read().decode('utf-8').replace('\r','').replace('\n',''))[0].replace('<br>','\r\n'))

I don't understand, are we supposed to play the audio and make the text show up on screen to the words in the song or what.

you can do music if you like. 

 

The idea is to make a program that shows a nursery rhyme. The plan is that as these are rather simple songs that translating that into a program would be easy for them to get a grasp off.

 

like i have got duck class with mother and duck classes.

 

10 green bottles you could do in a for loop that ends on 0 bottles.

 

I just thought that having something laid out like this would be easier to get them to do that saying "make a program that adds two numbers togther"
