Not just what happens between activities.

A simple story-song about snow falling down, down and piling up, up, then children on the ground, with arms and legs making "snowbirds" all around, round.

A little ditty based on a military marching and perseverance cadence. We sing this song to remind each other that we started together and will end together. I like to sing this song when things begin, when things are silly, fun and difficult. Be sure to sing when things are good and then it has more associations when things are more challenging.

A simple and quick song to greet the sun in the morning. Ends with social emotional messages, Includes simple science concept that the sun gives us day and night by sharing its warmth and light. I like to make a rainbow with "top paws" from one bottom paw to another. Opportunity to move through the colors of the rainbow with the children.

A silly ditty written while driving my kiddos with their friends. They thought it was silly, and I had a bit too much fun singing. We use a silly voice when singing it.

A simple song about having conversations. Written for an autistic family member, about sharing tales, truths, sharing experience, riddles, jokes, and hopes. This song emphasizes listening and sharing as reciprocal communication. Once this song is "installed" as a GuideNote, we can use this song to give a non-verbal cue to listen and tell and tell and listen, or even to share our words. Pairs well with "Show and tell means listen and share" song.

A simple song written for a bee-keeping family when I encountered at a local park. This is a gratitude song for the bees who helped to make the apple, the pear and the honey to feed the big brown bear. We like to make the buzzy sound and flap our wings when we sing the busy busy bees part.

This little song is a favorite of Frolic the Fox's friends. A counting and math song, where three bunnies are ready for bed but they want to jump in stead. Can use with other actions like spin, wiggle, shake, etc. We start with three bunnies ready for bed and count down while the bunnies on the bed go up to three.

The silliest song to gain attention of a group. Includes movements that can be little or bigger and opportunity for the silliest voices. Leader can sing and wait for group to all throw their eyes so that they can catch them, then lend their ears so they can borrow them. Get as silly as you want!
