Grandparents' Day Songs

I made a few videos of Miss Caitlin while she was practicing some of our Grandparents' Day songs with my class so that you can sing along with your child at  home.  (Please excuse my lack of video skills.  I'm still learning!)



Praise Him
Praise Him, praise him all ye little children
God is love, God is love.
Praise Him, praise him all ye little children
God is love, God is love.

Love Him, love him all ye little children
God is love, God is love.
Love Him, love him all ye little children
God is love, God is love.

Thank Him thank him all ye little children
God is love, God is love.
Thank Him, thank him all ye little children
God is love, God is love.





Indians Like to Play
(Sing twice)

Hi-ya-ya-ya
Hi-ya-ya-ya
Indians like to play!


Strut Mr. Turkey (Sing twice)

Who’s that sitting there looking mighty perky
Looks like it might be old Mr. Turkey
Strut Mr. Turkey
That’s a fancy way to walk!
Strut Mr. Turkey
That’s a fancy way to walk!



Many Things
There are many things I am thankful for
I can find them near and far
There are many things I am thankful for
Let me tell you what they are...


We're also singing Salute the Flag and Jesus Loves Me which most of the children already know.  I don't have a video for those, but here are the words:

Salute the Flag

Salute the flag,
The grand old flag
With colors red, white and blue
It stands for truth and liberty
This flag is waving for you!
Salute!

Jesus Loves Me
Jesus loves me! this I know,
For the Bible tells me so.
Little ones to Him belong;
they are weak but He is strong.

Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so.
