1.  I Like the Pit Pit Patter of the Raindrops.


A song our grandkids love to sing in the car with us and if you sing it through at the speed I sing it in the video then it is just over the 20 secs. But if you want to sing it fast then sing it twice and it will be the more than enough time for that important handwash time.




PRINTABLE








Now watch the video below to learn the tune

2.  Wash Your Hands  (to Baby Shark).


Everyone loves Baby Shark so why not change the words slightly

Because it is so well-known you won't need a printable for this one or really even a video to help you learn it (but for the fun of it I just might do one later).


The Words:

Wash Your Hands    (instead of Baby Shark)

sing it twice

 or 

why not personalize it by getting the children sing each others names or your name

ie.  Wash your hands  mummy, mummy, mummy
      Wash your hands  daddy, daddy, daddy
      Wash your hands  nanny, nanny, nanny
      Wash your hands  grandpa, grandpa, grandpa







3.  Love One Another Like Sister and     Brother.


A song that is very easy to learn and very easy to sing and definitely lasts over the 20 secs. Fred timed me before we did the video and he said 25 secs.  But I think I actually sang it slower on the video than I did when he was timing me.



PRINTABLE













Now watch the video below to learn the tune

4.  I Can Do All Things .


This is a song that will help the kids to learn a Bible Verse at the same time so a double blessing here.

It's based on Philippians 4 v 13  and the reference is actually included in the song too.







Click through HERE for a sound recording of the song that Fred and I make a few years back.


Hopefully I will add a video for the song later.



PRINTABLE











WORDS

I can do all things, all things.
I can do all things, all things.
I can do all things, all things.
Through Christ
Through Christ
Through Christ
Who strengthens me
Philippians  4  13
Philippians  4  13
Philippians  4  13


This song was always very easy to learn because of the repetition.

Normally sung as a great action song but this one is a good length for hand-washing.

8.  No Never Alone.


Such a simple song to learn but full of an important fact for kids to know - God will never leave us alone.

Sing it through twice and you will have washed your hands for over the correct length of time required.

10.  Whisper A Prayer.


This is a lovely gentle song encouraging the kids to pray often during the day.

Sing through the 2 sections once and you will have washed your hands for over the correct length of time required.



WORDS

WHISPER A PRAYER

Whisper a prayer in the morning
 Whisper a prayer at noon
Whisper a prayer in the evening
To keep your heart in tune.


God answers prayer in the morning
God answers prayer at noon
God answers prayer in the evening
So keep your heart in tune.

TIP.  The Lords Prayer.    


Parents what an timely opportunity this is to teach your children the Lords Prayer.

Of course before you do this you might like to use the time you are washing your hands to say the Lords Prayer because my son did tell me that it is the right length for our 20 sec hand washing regime.

Our oldest son is a Pastor and Theology lecturer in a Bible College and he assures me he instructed his students to use this as a good opportunity to pray while they were all still at the college during the start of virus lockdown, now they have gone home and the teaching is all online.

Because it is so well-known you won't need a printable for this one or really even a video to help you learn it (but for the fun of it I just might do a nice Graphic for you  later).

Christian Songs for Kids - Good News, Good News


Do you find it hard to get visuals and recordings for different kids songs?


I have always found this a problem so I am now sharing songs that I have used with children providing you with









Visuals 
(Powerpoint or Picture or details of how you can make one) 


Words   
(chords also available)


Recording  
(mp3 or video or both to learn the song) 


Then if you would like to download the visual of the song there will be a link provided to my creation, or I will direct you to where else you can find it.   



This month I am taking the theme of



SALVATION




The song I have chosen is 



Good News


Another one that I learnt when I was a teenager and started to help with

This is a short but very to the point song about how salvation is the "Good News" for us.
In a few lines the gospel is presented and the song is so easy to memorize that children very soon have those words etched in their memories telling then that Jesus has died for them.

Of course they all love it when you get to the end and you shout out the word EXTRA.




VISUAL

I have the original fold over card visual which I bought from CEF many years ago and it is still used often in our kid's club in a local school.




Unfortunately I can not find it for sale on the UK CEF website now but a new version with a second verse is available on the US CEF site



More recently I made a powerpoint for projection

WORDS


GOOD NEWS


Good News, Good News,

Christ died for me.
Good News, Good News,
If I believe.
Good News, Good News,
I'm saved eternally.
That's wonderful, EXTRA
Good News

ACTIONS

Very simple for this song.

For the first section of the song we clap
(up to eternally)
Then we cup our hands over our mouth to be able to shout the word
EXTRA in the second part





RECORDING

For this song we have a sound recording and a video both shown below












Notes:
I believe the Words are by O.G. Lewis and the song is in the public domain
but there is also a second verse which is under the copyright of CEF
More information can be found HERE  




I Hope you enjoy the song and this is a help to you.












Christian Songs for Kids - Who Made?



Some time ago I talked about not being able to find many powerpoint presentations to illustrate Christian Songs for Kids.

I had got to the point where I was making my own to use in our Church, Sunday School and an After School Bible Club our church ran in a nearby primary school each Monday.









NOW


I am going to share songs with you providing a 


Visual 
(Powerpoint or Picture or details of how you can make it) 


Words   
(chords also available)


Recording / Video
(to learn the song) 


Then if you would like to download the visual of the song there will be a link provided to my creation, or I will direct you to where else you can find it.  



Also don't forget you can go to the side bar on the right and sign up for an email reminder of my posts. Then you will know when the next song is posted.



Today I am starting with the theme of



 CREATION



The song I have chosen is 




WHO MADE?


My own children enjoyed singing this as they grew up through our Good News Club and Sunday School.

It is a simple repetitive song which strongly teaches the children that God is the creator of all things and of course there are some great actions for everyone to take part.




POWERPOINT

I made this presentation for projecting the words.

WORDS


WHO MADE

Who made the twinkling stars, 
The twinkling stars, the twinkling stars.
Who made the twinkling stars, 
Our Father God.

Who made the fish that swim, 
The fish that swim, the fish that swim.
Who made the fish that swim, 
Our Father God.

Who made the flowers & the trees, 
The flowers & the trees, the flowers & the trees.
Who made the flowers & the trees, 
Our Father God.

Who made the rolling waves, 
The rolling waves, the rolling waves.
Who made the rolling waves, 
Our Father God.

Who made both you & me, 
Both you & me, both you & me.
Who made both you & me, 
Our Father God

ACTIONS

Who made the twinkling stars  -  Hold up hands  at head height & Tap fingers and thumb together on both hands 

Who made the fish that swim  -  Place two hands palms together pointing forward and wiggle them

Who made the flowers & the trees  -  Close hands and bring them together in front and then open the hands to represent flowers opening

Who made the rolling waves  -  Place arms in front of you with one hand a few inches in front of the other and then circle the hands round each other in a rolling motion

Who made both you and me  -  Point outwards for you and in toward yourself for me

Our Father God  -  Simply point and look upwards.





RECORDING




Special "Thank You" to my husband Fred who looks after the Recordings and Chords




Notes:

The words and music for this are noted as traditional see here
and I cannot find any author.

I believe I probably made up the verse about the flowers and the trees but not sure.

If anyone has any further info on this song please let me know.




Why not Pin this for future use:-









I Hope you enjoy the song and this is a help to you.




If you have any Christian Kids Songs you would particularly like to see here please leave details in the comments and if I know the song I will endeavour to include it on the blog for you as soon as possible.
