20 Winter Songs
1.) The Winter Song
(tune: Farmer in the Dell)
Let's sing a winter song,
Let's sing a winter song,
The days are short, the nights are long.
Let's sing a winter song.
The winter wind is cold,
The winter wind is cold,
It freezes noses, ears, and toes.
The winter wind is cold.
Winter now is here,
Winter now is here,
Put on your coat, your hat, your gloves, Winter now is here.
2.) Winter Wonderland

To the tune of Ring Around the Rosie
Winter Winter Wonderland
Pockets Full of Mittens
Snowflakes, Snowflakes
We All Fall Down.
3.) The Snowkey Pokey

Tune Hokey Pokey
You put your right mitten in,
You take your right mitten out.
You put your right mitten in,
And you shake it all about.
You do the winter pokey, [shiver]
And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!
Others Include:
You put your left mitten in....
You put your right boot....
You put your left boot....
You put your winter hat in....
You put your snowsuit (whole body) in...
4.) winter clothes

Put a pile of winter clothing into the center of the circle. (boots, hat, mittens, snow pants, scarf, etc.
Tune : Are You Sleeping
It is snowing, it is snowing,
On my head, on my head
I need a hat, I need a hat,
On my head, on my head"
As you sing name the body part, let the children pick out the correct article of clothing to finish the verse.
For example, if you say feet...they would pick boots.
We did this at circle time with child sized clothing and as we sang, the teacher "put on" the clothing. The
children found this very funny.
5.) Winter is Here

Tune: Clementine
First the snowpants,
Then the boots,
Then the jacket,
Then the hat,
And the mittens go on last,
So we can go outside to play.
I have visuals hanging up on the wall with numbers, so we can point to what comes next. It works well
with 3 year olds.
6.) Snowflake Song

Tune: I'm a Little Teapot
I'm a little snowflake, fat and round
Falling softly to the ground.
When enough of me falls hear me shout,
"Here's a snowball, better watch out!" (pretend to throw a snowball)
7.) Snowball
tune - "Are You Sleeping, Brother John
Make a snowball, make a snowball. Throw it now, throw it now. Make a snowball, make a snowball.
Throw it now, throw it now!
Hand imitates making snowballs and throwing the snowballs. I let my children use crumbled white tissue
paper for the snowballs. They love this winter song
8.) Winter Poem

Here is a cute poem that makes the kids giggle :O)
I made myself a snowball
Just as perfect as could be.
I thought Id keep it as a pet
And let it sleep with me
I gave it some pajamas
And a pillow for its head.
Then, last night it ran away,
But first it wet the bed! Gotcha!
9.) Chubby Snowman

Tune: I'm a little teapot.
I'm a little snowman short and fat.
Here's my scarf and here's my hat.
When the snow is falling come and play.
Build a snowman every day.
10.) The Bunny and the Snowman

chubby little snowman had a carrot for a nose
Along came a bunny and what do you suppose?
That hungry little bunny was looking for his lunch...
And he ATE that snowman's nose. .nibble nibble. .CRUNCH
The kids love this if you add hand movements. .be creative!!
11.) Five little Snowmen fat

Five little snowman fat (Make A big belly with hands) each with a funny HAT(put hands on head like a
hat) out came the sun and melted one (raise arms in a large circle above head then wiggle down to the
ground. what a sad thing was that. BOO! Whooo Booo! Whooo(Put hands over eyes like your crying.)
Then repeat 4, 3, 2, 1.
12.) Mitten song

Finger play
Thumb in the thumb place (show thumbs alone facing up), fingers all together (put fingers out with
thumb still up so that it looks like a mitten). These are the things we wear in mitten weather (move
"mittens" back and forth).
13.) Winter finger play

Here is a Hill
Here is a hill (make a hill with your left arm)
All covered with snow
We'll get on our sled And ZOOM!
Down we'll go. (swoop right hand downward
14.) Five little snowmen On a winter's day

The first one said, "Wake up, so we can play!"
The second one said, "Let's stomp on the ground."
The third one said, "Let's roll around."
The fourth one said, "Let's run and run and run."
The fifth one said, "I'm afraid I feel the sun."
"Oh dear," cried the snowmen, As they looked toward the sky.
And the five melting snowmen Waved a fond goodbye.
15.) Snowflake song

Snowflake, snowflake, [Snowflake gesture.]
little snowflake. [Little gesture. Snowflake gesture.]
Little snowflake [Little gesture. Snowflake gesture.]
falling from the sky. [Snowflake gesture moving down.]
Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.
Falling, falling, falling, falling, falling,
falling, falling, falling, falling... [Snowflake gesture moving down very slowly.]
falling on my head. [Snowflake gesture landing on top of your head.]

Little snowflake falling from the sky.
falling, falling, falling, falling...
falling on my nose. [Snowflake gesture landing on your nose.]

Little snowflake falling from the sky.
falling, falling, falling, falling...
falling in my hand. [Snowflake gesture landing in your hand.]
Falling on my head.
Falling on my nose.Falling in my hand.

Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake...
16.) Mr. Groundhog

Tune : Are You Sleeping?
Mr. Groundhog, Mr. Groundhog,
Take a peek! Take a peek!
If you see your shadow,
The weather will be awful
Six more weeks, six more weeks.
17.) The Frost Song

Tune : The Farmer in the Dell"
The frost is in the air.
It's wintertime, It's wintertime,
The frost is on the trees.

The frost is on the roof.


The frost is on the windows.
The frost is on the ground.

The frost tells me it's cold.

So inside I'll stay.

So inside I'll stay.
Inside it's nice, and I am warm.
18.) It's Snowing!

Tune: Ten Little Indians
Snowflakes falling down, down, down,

Falling to the ground.
Watch them growing deeper, deeper,

Covering the ground.
Children playing--snow is fun!

When it hits the ground.
Now it's getting warmer, warmer.

Melting all the snow.
Very soon it disappears,

Very soon it disappears,
Very soon it disappears, Now the snow's all gone.
19.) Snowball in my bed

I made myself a snow ball as perfect as could be.
I thought I'd keep it as a pet and let it sleep with me.
I made it some pajamas and a pillow for it's head.
Then, last night it ran away.
But first -- it wet the bed.
20.) It Is Winter
Tune: Are You Sleeping?
It is winter,
It is winter,
Oh, so cold!
Oh, so cold!
Icy, snowy weather,
Long nights and short days,
Winter's here!
Winter's here
