This is our second attempt at Row Row Row Your Boat (Gently down the stream). The first one we uploaded was our first animated video upload but there were a few things I didnt like. We decided to turn this version into a lyric/sing-a-long version. With each YouTube video we create, we do our best to improve our animation just a little bit.
I’ve said this before, but our animation certainly isn’t Cocomelon, ChuChuTV or even Lagu Anak (thanks for all the views from Indonesia!) quality. I’m happy enough with how the revised version turned out though and hope you enjoy it too! The videos have all been tested with our own baby when she’s been crying, and have all worked in soothing her!
It’s said that the earliest printing of the song is from 1852, when the lyrics were published with similar lyrics to those used today, but with a very different tune.
This is a simple, classic nursery rhyme / pre-school lullaby and makes a fantastic video for your children. We know there’s many alternatives on YouTube, but we hope you give our version a watch and try it out on your own baby.
♫ Lyrics ♫
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream

If you’re looking for a more physical device that plays lullabies and white noise, our number one recommendation is the Tommee Tippee GroFriend (we’ve reviewed the product here). We have also drawn up a list of the best white noise / sound aid machines across various categories, and also Amazons best white noise buys.
The animations in our video are by ourselves using illustrations from freepik.com
The music in the video is from YouTubes free catalogue and is by a fantastic group of artists called The Green Orbs.
