The winter holidays are quickly approaching and I've been busy rounding up all of my favorite songs for the holidays as well as writing some new songs too.
Today I'm sharing a song that I've already been singing with students this week.
"Christmas Lights" features the following colors: red, green, yellow and blue.
It is sung to the tune of "London bridge is falling down", and I added a violin part to make it extra special. :) Every December, this song is a serious favorite to many of the students I see each week!
The repetitive lyrics and tune make this song one that students will quickly learn and sing. Students can work on color identification, spelling of color words, and sequencing skills (which color was first, second,etc. in the song?), all in one simple song! This year I've also incorporated a little bit of sign language for the words bright and night. The students are doing so well incorporating the signs and singing along!
The song and lyrics are below.
Christmas lights are shining bright,
shining bright, shining bright.
Christmas lights are shining bright all through the night.
Red lights are shining bright...
Green lights are shining bright...
Yellow lights are shining bright...
Blue lights are shining bright...
Christmas lights are shining bright,
shining bright, shining bright.
Christmas lights are shining bright all through the night.
Have a great weekend and check back soon for more holiday songs!
