What lives in soil, water, food, and on our bodies but is usually too small to see? This curious kids’ song introduces bacteria as tiny single-celled organisms, explores how certain bacteria help make yogurt, and explains how washing with soap and water reduces the spread of microbes.
Original explanations based on the cited sources.
Bacteria
Bacteria are single-celled organisms without a cell nucleus. Many are useful or harmless; only some cause disease.
Sources
Microorganisms
Microorganisms are organisms usually too small to see without a microscope, such as bacteria and yeasts. They are not all single-celled or disease-causing.
Sources
Lactic fermentation
Lactic fermentation converts pyruvate into lactate, allowing a cell to keep obtaining energy by breaking down glucose without using oxygen. Yogurt bacteria use this process.

Song lyrics
Что прячет земля у меня на ладони?
Из сада домой — и живот заурчал
Йогурт и фрукты ждут на столе
Но на коже темнеют следы от земли
В капле под микроскопом — бактерии
Каждая — клетка, не видная глазу
Бактерии — крошечные живые клетки
Одни помогают, другие могут вредить
Многие просто живут рядом с нами
Заглянем в их мир — всех бояться не надо
Крупным планом: точки, палочки, дуги
Живут в земле, воде, еде, на нас и в нас
Некоторые делают йогурт из молока
Такая перемена — ферментация
Другие могут с немытых рук попасть на фрукты
Бактерии — крошечные живые клетки
Одни помогают, другие могут вредить
Многие просто живут рядом с нами
Заглянем в их мир — всех бояться не надо
Вода и мыло пенятся на руках
Пена смоет грязь и часть микробов
Меньше их перейдёт, но исчезнут не все
Бактерии — крошечные живые клетки
Одни помогают, другие могут вредить
Многие просто живут рядом с нами
Заглянем в их мир — всех бояться не надо
Чистыми руками готовлю перекус
Language version lyrics
What hides in the soil on my hand?
Back from the garden, my stomach starts growling
Yogurt and fruit are waiting on the table
But dark earthy streaks still mark my skin
In a drop, the microscope shows bacteria
Each is one living cell, too small for eyes alone
Bacteria — tiny living cells
Some can help, and some may cause harm
Many simply live all around us
See their hidden world; don't fear them all
Magnified: dots, rods, and bending shapes
They live in soil and water, on us, in us
Certain bacteria turn milk into yogurt
That change is called fermentation
From unwashed hands, others can reach the fruit
Bacteria — tiny living cells
Some can help, and some may cause harm
Many simply live all around us
See their hidden world; don't fear them all
Soap and water bubble on my hands
Foam rinses dirt and some microbes away
Fewer can spread, though not all disappear
Bacteria — tiny living cells
Some can help, and some may cause harm
Many simply live all around us
See their hidden world; don't fear them all
With clean hands, I make my colorful snack

Follow used handwashing water from a household drain into the sewer network and a treatment plant, then onward to a river that may reach the sea. This lively children’s song introduces screens, settling particles, helpful microorganisms, and the important fact that treated wastewater is not drinking water.

Follow Ola’s cheese-sandwich bite on an imaginary camera trip into her stomach. See how muscle movements mix the food, while gastric juice and enzymes help break it down before small portions move on to the small intestine.
