There are SO many Christmas carols to be singing this time of year. At our house we usually end up singing just the chorus because we don't know all of the words or because it is the catchiest part for B to remember. With younger children it is nice to have short rhymes and songs that are easy to remember and put movements to. Here are a few to put you in the Christmas mood....Where Is Santa
Sung to: "Where is Thumbkin"
Sung to: "Where is Thumbkin"
Where is Santa?
Where is Santa?
Here I am!
Here I am!
Merry, merry Christmas
Merry, merry Christmas
Ho Ho Ho! Ho Ho Ho!
**At first we used 2 pictures of Santa (one in each hand) for props, but after awhile we just used our thumbs.
Jingle Bell
Sung To: "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star"
Jingle, jingle, little bell.
I can ring my little bell.
Ring it high,
Ring it low.
Ring it fast.
Ring it fast.
Ring it slow.
Jingle, jingle, little bell.
I can ring my little bell.
Jingle, jingle little bell.
I can ring my little bell.
Ring it left.
Ring it right.
Even ring it out of sight.
Jingle Jingle, little bell.
I can ring my little bell.
**Use a bell as a prop and act it out as you sing.

ReplyDeleteI love that you do baby activities! Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteMy little boy will love these songs. Thank you for sharing. We've already been singing along to a few fun Christmas carols and these will be perfect to add to our little concerts!
ReplyDeleteYour Activity Advent calendar is amazing. You have included so many fantastic activities and I really appreciate all of the links that you kindly provided. I squealed when I saw you had provided the cards for us to download - thank you, thank you, thank you. I had already seen and printed off some of the resources you had included in your calendar as we are also going to be doing some of them over the coming weeks.
Very cute! I'll have to sing them to my new Christmas baby!

These are great, love all of the songs you post. My daughter is terrified of all things Santa, even small Christmas ornaments. Maybe she would she would be less frightened if I sang the Santa song to her.
