Your te reo programme probably includes learning weather words and phrases. Now you can have a book and song about the weather to complement what you are already teaching.
This book is a favourite with children of all ages.
They love the weather sounds that go along with each page – especially the loud clap of thunder at the end! It’s an easy book to act out with children, helping teach te reo Maōri words for the clothing items that go with the different types of weather.

What others say about Anei Kē!:
“At our centre we all love Te Reo Singalong books! I particularly love Anei Kē as it gives me goosebumps when the little girl is being comforted by her mama during the thunderstorm. Just lovely! As soon as I take one of the books out of the cupboard, the children’s faces light up and I have a captive audience of under two year olds! Our staff also enjoy this fun way of becoming more aware of and learning te reo Māori. I highly recommend these books to anyone working with young children.” Sam Osborne, early childhood teacher
