Oriori/Lullaby

Lullabies and Oriori are traditional songs or chants to soothe baby. Sometimes the lullabies or oriori we know were sung to us when we were babies. They can also be a means of passing down the beliefs or knowledge of our ancestors.

Here are some examples:

Sing Moe Moe Pepe along with the Fruean family - a much loved Samoan lullaby sung by Samoan parents around the world to soothe baby to sleep.
