Kidsongs: A Day at Old MacDonald's Farm is the very first Kidsongs Music Video Story that was originally presented by View-Master Video & Warner Bros. Records.

It was released on December 3, 1985, and was a Vira Award winning video, marking the first entry of the original Kidsongs "A Day at..." series.

Plot

Join the boys and the girls for a sing-along day on the farm and meet all of their MacDonald's barnyard friends. Milk the cows, feed the piglets, cuddle the ducklings and meet Mary's famous lamb as you sing the songs we all know and love. Bounce along on an old-fashioned hayride and sing around the campfire in this heartwarming music video adventure.
