I found this cute song through Dan Roam’s blog about a little girl expressing her love for charts. The graphics are quite ugly after my opinion, but the song still might inspire some kids to become information designers one day… Because a chart is indeed a “handy dandy scientific tool” :) Here are the lyrics:
I like checking out charts, cause charts rule
A chart is a handy dandy scientific tool
It gives you information you can see with your eyes
A chart lets you visualize
You get the picture – So do I!May I please draw your attention to this weather chart
I tell you this chart is a work of art
I see clouds on Friday and rain on Monday
And look there’s gonna be sun on Sunday!I like checking out charts, cause charts rule
A chart is a handy dandy scientific tool
It gives you information you can see with your eyes
A chart lets you visualize
You get the picture – So do I!How many kids like a dog or a cat?
Who wears a hoody and who wears a hat?
Making a chart of what people eat
Some charts look like a pie and you know that’s sweet!I like checking out charts, cause charts rule
A chart is a handy dandy scientific tool
It gives you information you can see with your eyes
A chart lets you visualize
You get the picture – So do I!
Haha :) Children’s tv for nerds, how sweet.
