Greetings, I am interested in finding more about the children's song "Baby Shark" -- called "Kleiner Hai" in German. There are numerous videos in German and English on Youtube but I haven't been able to date the song... Could you please post when & where you first learned the song? BABY SHARK SONG The fun of this song is in the actions. As the shark gets bigger, so does its mouth you make with your hands and arms.
