Songs for children age 3-6 .. im maing up a cd and would like some ideas?

Question

as to what songs as i could put on it x thanks x

Answer 1

Great idea above for a CD for 3 & 4 years olds, however, the kids who are in Kindergarten - 1st grade seem to really enjoy a lot of the Kidz Bop Music and Radio Disney type songs more than the little kiddie songs. (Hollback Girls and the clean version of Get the Party Started are the favs at parties as well as Who Let the Dogs Out and I Like to Move It.)

Also - for the younger kids - Ralphs World has some great songs which aren't as annoying as some others.  My kids love Teddy Bear named Freddy Bear and Happy Lemons.

Answer 2

what about "Woodie Guthrie  song for children "Donavon "HMS Donavon" get some wonderful alternative stuff!

Answer 3

songs that are lively and has a story...

Answer 4

What about, 'Smack my ***** up' by The Prodigy?

Answer 5

I did the same thing with the songs I use in my classroom.  I used songs from the following artists:

Laurie Berkner- Victor Vito and Buzz Buzz CD's

Hap Palmer- Learning through Music Series

Jim Gill- Making Noise in Boise Idaho

They are fun songs and the children enjoyed teaching their parents the motions to the songs.

Answer 6

why don't you think about the songs you loved when you were 3-6 and maybe put them in? you should ask around...preferably in real life.

Answer 7

I don't know of any sites. but some good songs are The Wheels on the Bus, Bear Hunt, She will becoming around the Mountain, Froggy went a courting, 5 little monkeys, 5 little speckle frogs, Any songs where they have to different kinds of motions.

Answer 21

Hi!

There is a very good site about music for children age 3-6 years!

http://www.michaelolaf.net/1CW36music.ht...

I think the songs from the Disney movies are very good!

http://www.amazon.com/Classic-Disney-Vol...

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lion-King-Origin...

http://www.amazon.com/Tarzan-Mark-Mancin...

In this site there are good suggestions children's songs!

http://www.kidscdsandtapes.com

Here, in Brazil, there is a group of singers called "Palavra Cantada" ("Word Sung")! The songs of them are very good! I think all children like them, but this group of singers only sings songs in Portuguese Language...

Bye!
