preschool songs

Tiny tot melodies

Songs designed for children roughly ages two to five, typically featuring simple melodies, repetitive lyrics, and themes appropriate for early childhood—colors, animals, body parts, counting.

Many incorporate hand motions or actions: The kids sang preschool songs during circle time.

Standards include "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," "The Wheels on the Bus," and "If You're Happy and You Know It."
