Apples and Bananas is a kids’ song that teaches them to pronounce distinct vowel sounds.
The rhyme starts by singing about eating apples and bananas, then changes the pronunciation for several words to fit the vowel sounds.
The repetitive lines make it a fun educational song for kids.

I like to eat, eat, eat apples and bananas.
I like to eat, eat, eat apples and bananas.
