We sing a lot of songs throughout the day as we find that the kids really enjoy it - and it helps to engage them and get everyone doing what they're supposed to. Some of our parents have requested the words to these songs, as sometimes even when we try to make sure the kids learn the right words, hilarity ensues when they sing them on their own at home...

Gilly Gily Gilly Goodmorning
We sing this song to begin our circle time in the morning

Gilly, gilly , gilly, good morning, good morning, good morning
Gilly, gilly, gilly, good morning, good morning to you

minnie mac, minnie mac, minnie minnie minnie mac
minnie mac, minnie mac, minnie moe

minnie mac, minnie mac, minnie minnie minnie mac
minnie mac, minnnie mac, minnie moe

Gilly, gilly, gilly, good morning, good morning to you

Put Your Back Against The Wall
We sing this song sometimes when lining up for a transition
(Sing to the tune of if your happy and you know it)

Put your back against the wall, against the wall
Put your back against the wall, against the wall
Put your back against the wall and stand up straight and tall
Put your back against the wall, against the wall. 

I'm In The Line
We sing this song sometimes when we line up for a transition
(sing to the tune of old Mc Donald)

I'm in the line behind my friend, behind my friend in the line
I'm in the line behind my friend, behind my friend in the line
In the line, in the line, in the line, in the line, in the line

I'm in the line behind my friend, behind my friend in the line

Open Shut Them
We sing this song as a finger play to get the wiggles out and prepare the children for another activity

Open shut them, open shut them, give a little clap, clap, clap
Open shut them, open shut them, lay they them in your lap, lap, lap
Creep them, creep them, creep them, creep them
Right up to your chin.... open your mouth, open your mouth
But do not let them in, GULP

Days Of The Week
We sing this song during circle time as we review the the date and days of the week
(Sing to the tune of the Addams' Family)

Days of the week (snap, snap)
Days of the week (snap, snap)
Days of the week, days of the week, days of the week (snap, snap)

There's Sunday, and there's Monday, there's Tuesday and, there's Wednesday, there's Thursday and there's Friday and even Saturday

Days of the week (snap, snap)
Days of the week (snap, snap)
Days of the week, days of the week, days of the week (snap, snap)

Weather Song
We sing this song after the weather helper looks out the window and shares the weather with the rest of the class

What does the weather boy/girl, weather boy/girl, weather boy/girl
What does the weather boy/girl say today? Whooow


Clean Up
We sing this song when cleaning up

Clean up, clean up, everybody everywhere
Clean up, clean up, everybody do your share

Color Man
We sing this song and run in place until we can call out the color of a cut out man

Run, run as fast as you can until you can tell me the color of this man...
