Preschool Song Booklet

This week I started homeschool with Owen. I thought it would be fun to have a more structured play time with him because I realized that there were some things I wanted to be sure that I taught him before he started Kindergarten.
I typed up 45 of my favorite preschool songs and laminated them.
There are some Sunday School favorites
Some songs that I remember from our little elementary school music class
And my favorites from our library's children's reading time.
I had the best time compiling this list and I can't wait to start teaching these to Owen. What fun! Would you like them too? Here's the link.

So as my homeschool journey begins, let me ask you... would you like to see some of the things Owen and I are working on? Do you homeschool too and if so, what are your favorite online resources?

    I'd like to see some ideas. My daughter is 2 1/2 and I've been compiling things so I can start a little schooling for her when the new school year starts (or maybe even sooner!). Fresh ideas are always needed :)

    Wow! Thank you! My education degree & experience are for upper elementary/middle school. Since I've been gathering ideas to work with my toddler, I've been drawing a blank on songs! (Today, I even resorted to the Name Game Song. "Mommy Mommy Bo Bommy, Banana-Fana-Fo-Fommy...") I'll print out your PDF and start teaching Elizabeth some fun new songs.

    Many medieval English verses associated with the birth of Jesus take the form of a lullaby, including "Lullay, my liking, my dere son, my sweting" and may be versions of contemporary lullabies. However, most of those used today date from the 17th century. For example, a well known lullaby such as "Rock-a-bye, baby on a tree top", cannot be found in records until the late-18th century when it was printed by John Newbery.
