17 Winter Songs for Kids To Sing

Winter Song

Animals are looking for winter shelter and the days are getting shorter, while we are engaged in winter sports and building snowmen.

Oh its winter, I am feeling cold
Wear your sweaters and don’t be too bold
Time to spot the birds that migrate all the way
Time for animals to store their prey
The days are short and nights are long
Time to make snowmen all along
The sky is dark and the ground is white
To ski down the slope is such a delight

Winter Dance

The following belongs to the category of songs that coordinate the group not only with the voice but also with movements. We follow the lyrics with hands, feet and also…. our nose, making the corresponding movements.

Snowflakes falling down, swirling in the sky.
we all should get some and take them for a ride.
But first we’ve got to catch them with our hands now
don’t you know.
Put your hands out quick and hope they stick.
Then we’ll head out to the snow.
Slip sliding with your left foot then your right.
Slip sliding, spin around on hills of white.
Slip sliding with your boots or in your shoes.
Slip sliding, it’s the winter thing to do.

The Snow Song

A faster song, this one reminds us that snowflakes are not only playful but also amazing if you notice them.

If you notice it starts getting chilly
And the sky’s getting covered with clouds
Go get your boots, gloves, jacket and put them on quickly
Because it’s about to snow

Little snowflakes are falling and falling
And the city’s been all painted white
The children on their sleighs, they are riding and riding
It is a wonderful sight

White snow’s falling, falling
Everybody’s enjoying
Now the snow is finally here

If you look at the snowflakes up closely
They’re all different, just come and see
And not to mention that they are all quite a beauty
They’re amazing don’t you agree

You can find them in many unique shapes
There are prisms, triangles and plates
Others are shaped like stars and they have many branches
Come with me, let’s go and play

White snow’s falling, falling
Everybody’s enjoying
White snow’s falling, falling
Covering our garden
White snow’s falling, falling
Everybody’s enjoying
Now the snow is finally here

Snow Man Freeze Song

Move your body and freeze in a Rock ‘n Roll rhythm.

We’ll roll the snow
Into a big ball
To make the bottom of a snowman – Freeze!

We’ll pat the snow
Around that big ball
We’ve got the bottom of a snowman – Freeze!
We’ll make a snowman. We’ll make a snowman.
We’ll make a snowman. Freeze!
We’ll make a snowman. We’ll make a snowman.
We’ll make a snowman. Freeze!

We’ll roll the snow
Into a medium ball
To make the middle of the snowman-Freeze!

We’ll pat the snow
Around that medium ball
We’ve got the middle of the snowman – Freeze!
We’ll make a snowman. We’ll make a snowman.
We’ll make a snowman. Freeze!
We’ll make a snowman. We’ll make a snowman.
We’ll make a snowman. Freeze!

We’ll roll the snow
Into a small ball
To make the head of the snowman – Freeze!
We’ll pat the snow
Around that small ball
We’ve got the head of the snowman – Freeze!
We’ll make a snowman. We’ll make a snowman.
We’ll make a snowman. Freeze!
We’ll make a snowman. We’ll make a snowman.
We’ll make a snowman. Freeze!

We’ll use some rocks or coal
For his mouth and eyes
A carrot for his nose,
That’s no surprise
Some twigs for his arms
From some fallen trees
A scarf and hat
We’ve got our snowman – Freeze!

We’ll make a snowman. We’ll make a snowman.
We’ll make a snowman. Freeze!
We’ll make a snowman. We’ll make a snowman.
We’ll make a snowman. Freeze!

I Like Winter

It might remind you of “Deck the Halls” where we sing Falalalala… Besides, there are also references to Rudolph or Santa Claus, since in the minds of both the young and the older ones, snow is connected to the Christmas holidays.

“Wow! It’s snowing!”

Fa la la la la, la la la la
Fa la la la la, la la la la

Oh, white white
I like a white winter.
Oh, snow snow
I like a snowy winter.
We can make a snowman.
We can have a snow fight.
White white
Snowy snowy
I like winter.

Fa la la la la, la la la la
Fa la la la la, la la la la

So shiny outside,
I like a beautiful winter.
So slippery outside,
I like a fun winter.
We can skate on the ice.
We can ride a snow sleigh.
Shiny and slippery,
I like winter.

Oh, I like winter full of
laughter in the streets.
Oh, I like winter full of
presents in our hands.
Santa Claus is happy!
Rudolph is happy!
Full of laughter
Full of presents
I like winter.

Fa la la la la, la la la la
Fa la la la la, la la la la

Children’s Winter Song

A beautiful little song that – with a little practice – you can sing with the school choir. Its lyrics speak of the shortening days, hibernating animals and the beauty of quiet snowflakes.

Winter time is here, it’s cold and icy
Snow is falling down all around me
Days are getting short, the nights are longer
All because it’s winter time

Winter time is here so let’s dress warmer
Put on your jacket and your gloves
Let’s have hot drinks like tea and cocoa.
Now that it’s winter time.

I look up in the sky, snow falls down on me
It falls upon my head, my nose and on my cheeks
It’s beautiful to see.

Animals are cold, they need their shelter
When the winter starts in December
They build a little home, for months they sleep there
All because it’s winter time.

I look up in the sky, snow falls down on me
It falls upon my head, my nose and on my cheeks
It’s beautiful to see.

A Winter Song

Nancy Kopman sings a very “sweet” and very easy for children melody dedicated to Winter. The glockenspiel accompanies her and the lyrics speak of the magic of the white landscape in the cycle of the seasons.

A Winter Song
Winter is a time of year when we
can sing about the changes we might see.
It’s different from the Spring,
Summer and Fall.
Winter’s the last season of them all

In some parts of the world, Winter is cold.
Icicles and frost and winter clothes.
Snowflakes are falling down to the ground.
Everything’s white when you look around

Socks, boots and sweaters
coats, snow pants
shovelling the snow so you can walk
(you can walk in the snow)
Scarves, hats and earmuffs,
mittens on your hands.
See breath in the air when people talk
(when they talk).

Winter is a time when we can sing
about the magic that nature can bring.
Sing for the season, sing for what you see.
Sing a Winter song along with me
(happy Winter).
Sing a Winter song and feel happy
(happy Winter).
Happy Winter, everybody (happy Winter)!

Ukulele In A Snowstorm

Maybe some winter day the ukulele in love feels a bit melancholyic A dark day, however, can be made bright by traveling on some strings and chords!

Blizzard blowin’ round
5 feet on the ground
But your strings transform
cold into warm
When the weather makes me sad I oughta
Sing out that I’m glad I got a
Ukulele in a snowstorm

Now I’m singing to the shoreline
And strummin that sunshine
‘Cause your chords transport
without even needing an airport
On a day that’s cloudy
You can fly me right to Maui
Yeah, that’s a Ukulele in a snowstorm

Mister Winter Bee

What is happening here; What does a bee do in the winter? “The flowers are gone there’s nothing to sip” honeybee! Can’t you see it’s time to go?

Why are you here mister winter bee?
You’re not where you’re supposed to be
The sun is gone you’re all alone
So why are you here mister winter bee?

Shiver and shiver those little wings
Shiver and shiver you flying thing
What are you doin’ buzzing low?
Over the ice over the snow
If you feel too cold you should fly away
To a place where the sun shines every day
Out over oceans and islands too
That’s what you’re supposed to do

Single bee zoom and zip
The flowers are gone there’s nothing to sip
Shiver and shake shiver and shake
You zig and zag around a snowflake
And you buzz buzz buzz and you land on me
You land on a sparkly frosty tree
The clouds are dark the clouds are low
Can’t you see it’s time to go?

Little Red Sled

Winter is a girl who loves winter and even more she loves books and reading. Listen to her story and then sing along with her! A lovely song written and sung by Emily Arrow.

Winter, Winter!

Winter loves Winter
She loves when it snows outside
So does her little dog
Ohhh!

Winter goes walking
But won’t leave her books at home
She brings them all along
Ohhh!

Little red sled
In the snow
Full of books
Go, go, go! Go, go, go!

Then Autumn sees Winter
and wonder what’s on her sled
“Can I borrow a book?”
He said

Little red sled
In the snow
Full of books
Go, go, go! Go, go, go!

When everyone sees her
THey want their own book to read
Her sled becomes a little red library

Little red sled
In the snow
Full of books
Go, go, go! Go, go, go!

She’s running out of stories
Where’d they all go?
She’s running out of stories
Time to go home

Then on Winter’s doorstep
A giant surprise was left
A hundret books that she’d never read!

Little red sled
In the snow
Full of books
Go, go, go! Go, go, go!

Bright Winter Day

Although inside and outside differ, you can feel winter everywhere!

Inside, frost on the window
Inside, look at the shadows
Inside, see how the lights glow
Inside, Inside, Inside, Inside

Outside, dress so warm from head to toe
Outside, watch the snowflakes fall so slow
Outside, sleds on the hill, down they go
Outside, Outside Outside Outside

Inside or Outside, Winter is here
Inside or Outside, yes the world is wide
Inside or Outside, but you’re by my side
And I’m just happy to have you here
I’m just happy to have you near

Inside, let’s a read our book together
Inside, don’t worry bout the weather
Inside, bake a cake, yeah why not, for sure sure!
Inside, inside, inside, inside

Outside, always wear your mittens
Outside, let’s follow someone footprints
Outside, no sign of Spring or any hints, any hints
Outside outside outside outside

Snow, snowmen and snowballs everywhere! The whole family plays and has fun in the white, fluffy snow.

Every Snowflake Is Different

Talking about diversity through a winter song. Every single one of us is different, just like snowflakes. A song by the rock band My Chemical Romance.

Every snowflake’s different just like you
I’ll sing about it if you ask me to

Different shapes and different size
Like every star up in the sky
Every snowflake’s different just like you

Green fur, blue skin
And the very silly way you grin
Big fangs, small chin
There are so many special things about you
Things about you, things about you

Every snowflake’s different just like
Every snowflake’s different just like
Every snowflake’s different just like you

Different shape and different size
Like every star up in the sky
Every snowflake’s different just like you

Winter Song

Snow, white landscapes and a winter wonderland again. Sing on the beat!

Blankets of snow
Christmas lights a glow
The sleigh bells ring
And away we go

The cold wind blows
We’re dressed from
Head to toes
In a hat,
Boots, mittens
And a comfy coat

Winter is the coldest
Time of year
‘Tis the season,
It’s the reason
Snow and ice appear

The trees are bare
Snow’s everywhere
Can you see
Your breath
In the frosty air?

With shorter days
And longer nights
We’ll see the magic
In the stars tonight

Nature is quieter
And animals will rest
Some sleep late,
Or hibernate,
That’s what they
Do the best

We’ll ski and skate
And play ’til late
We’ll build a snowman
And celebrate

We’ll slip and slide
Toboggan ride
It’s so much fun
At winter time
This winter wonderland
Is mine!

The Snowflake Song

You will have noticed that the snowflake songs are rather slow and calm. Apart from the cold, it is very important to find the beauty of nature through songs, in every season. Sing and talk with the children about how connected we are to nature and how important it is to protect it.

Snowflakes falling from the sky
My, oh, my!
Oh, what a beautiful sight
Try as I might, I can’t describe
The beauty of this magic in my eyes

Snowflake, snowflake,
Where did you come from
And where will you go?
Snowflake, snowflake,
You make me happy
I’m singing your song

In The Snow

Intense pace, fast tempo and action. Enough with singing, let’s go outside to play!

It is nice and cold today
I know what do
We can go outside
Won’t you come you too?

Grab your scarf and mittens
Also wear your coat
Now put your hat on
And we’re ready to go

Come along, come along
Let’s play in the snow
Come along, come along
Let’s play in the snow
Come along, come along
Let’s go have some fun playing in the snow.

Snowball throwing
We like to make them splat!
We make a snowman
With eyes and a hat

Then we can go skating
Oh its so much fun
But make sure you’re careful
Or you’ll fall down on your bum

Come along, come along…

Do you think the snow is fine
Could it always be winter time?

We glide over hills
Together in a sleigh
We go so fast
We like it that way

From the top, to below
Our sleigh glides well in snow
Is it time to stop?
Just one more time to the top.

Come along, come along…
