🎂Mildred J. Hill and her sister, Patty, were kindergarten teachers in Kentucky, USA. One day in 1893, Mildred composed a melody on the piano. It sounded good, so she played it to Patty, who added some words. Soon they had made it into a simple song to greet the children as they came into class each day. Good morning to you Good morning to you Good morning, dear children Good morning to you.
