Need help identifying 70's album of folk songs sung by children

Need help identifying early 70's album of folk songs sung by children.

The album cover emphasized multiculturalism.

Some of the songs were:

Fox went out on a chilly night
Cindy
Michael row the boat ashore
Clementine
Oh Shenandoah
This land is your land

Any help would be much appreciated.

Would have sworn you were talking about the Langley Schools Music Project but it doesn't quite match.

^ My first thought, based on the title. Great album.

This Land Is Your Land And more of the Folk songs children love to sing by the Do-Re-Mi Children's Chorus, possibly?

Tracks:

This Land Is Your Land
If I Had A Hammer
Michael Row the Boat Ashore
Skip to My Lou
Across the Wide Missouri
Cindy
So Long It's Been Good to Know You
The Fox
Down in the Valley
Go Tell Aunt Rhody
Sweet Betsy From Pike
Blue-Tail Fly

It's from 1966, but that's pretty close. Also, the cover doesn't have any multicultural emphasis (I can post an image later).

Thank you so much! This is definitely it!

I'd also like to thank auto and Numanoid for giving it a shot.

Much appreciated!

Found 'em all on Youtube.

Man, I haven't heard these songs since the mid-70's. My brother and I wore out several copies of this album.
