I love this!! I’m always looking for new song ideas to start circle time but usually come up empty handed. I’m excited to try some of these when school starts!
I can’t get the morning songs to print. It says pdf error.
can’t get it to work
I’m so sorry that you had difficulty grabbing the morning greeting activities! I just fixed the problem so you can grab it here:

I hope your kids love them!
I loves your ideas! After being a preschool teacher for several years, I teach toddlers. So morning meetings are quite shorter than preschoolers. I’m always looking looking for new ideas to help them focus and engage with their peers. When clapping out their names we have also stomped, but how about using the musical instruments or egg shakes? You’ve got my mine spinning with ideas! Love your songs!
YAY! I am so happy that you are enjoying these ideas! Egg shakers would be SO fun, or any type of instrument! Thanks for sharing, Sarah!

Thanks I will use them .Transitioning to older class.
Those are really good ideas and allow a lot of creative expansion for a teacher to come up with.
Hi Bob,
I’m thrilled that you like the songs! I hope you’re able to try them out!
