Winter Is Here                                              
 December 15, 2014


 

Good Morning,

 

Winter is here! That means bundling up and bracing the cold. One of the parents in my classes requested that I record the winter songs we used in class to learn for use at home. These songs are great for playing in the snow, or preparing to leave the house with proper attire for the cold. 

 

"The Snow Is Falling" is a song that I learned from Meredith Pizzi, which she learned from her internship supervisor, and now business partner, Elizabeth Schwartz. It is a great song for learning body part identification while singing about the winter season.

 

"When It's Cold" was written by our very own Music Therapist and Sprouting Melodies Provider, Sarah Tree. She wrote it in her internship to the tune of "If You're Happy And You Know It." It is a great song for identifying articles of clothing that are relevant for the winter season. The song can also help older children start sequencing what came first and next. Sing this song when you are putting on your winter gear for a smooth transition out of the house, and have some fun!

 

Stay warm, and I'll see you in class!

 

~Kristina

The Snow Is Falling
By Unknown
(featuring my dog, Niko)

The Snow Is Falling
"The Snow Is Falling"
"The snow is falling it's cold outside
  Brr, brr, it's cold outside
  The snow is falling it's cold outside
  Brr, brr, brr...

  I'll run inside to warm my hands
  Warm my hands, warm my hands
  I'll run inside to warm my hands
  And then i'll go and play again."

  (Warm my knees -pat knees
            Warm my feet- stamp feet...etc)

                                                            Be creative and have fun!
When It's Cold

When It's Cold
"When It's Cold"
 "When it's cold I wear a hat upon my head
   When it's cold I wear a hat upon my head
   When it's cold out there,
   There are snowflakes in the air 
   When it's cold I wear a hat upon my head"

  


 

Additional Lyrics:

 (Scarf around my neck

  Jacket on my body

  Mittens on my hands

  Snow pants on my legs

  Boots upon my feet)                                 Sequence:

 "So I have a hat upon my head

  And a scarf around my neck 

  And a jacket on my body

        And mittens on my hands

              And snow pants on my legs

              And boots upon my feet

              When it's cold outside"
