When a child asks to sing a song or your tring to think of some of the songs you used to know can be really hard to remember. So down below I have got some simple well known songs just to get you started. All kids love listening to you sing or they will join in with maybe actions or start singing with you. Singing is important to do with your child even if you cant sing with a proper voice, they dont care they enjoy listening to you talk and sing to them. This is how they learn new words, numbers and nursery Rhymes. I hope you have fun singing these few songs.

Twinkle Twinkle
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle twinkle little star
How i wonder what you are

Eensy Weensy Spider
Eensy weensy spider
Climbed up the water spout
Down came the rain
And washed poor Eensy out
Out came the sunshine
And dried up all the rain
And Eensy weensy spider
Climbed up the spout again

Row, Row, Row Your Boat
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream

Baa Baa Black Sheep
Baa baa black sheep
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full
One for the master
And one for the dame
And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.

Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
Head and shoulders, knees and toes
Knees and toes, knees and toes
Head and shoulders, knees and toes
We all clap hands together.
Eyes and ears and mouth and nose
Mouth and nose, mouth and nose
Eyes and ears and mouth and nose
We all clap hands together
(and so on)

Teady Bear
Teddy bear, Teddy bear, touch the ground.
Teddy bear, Teddy bear, turn around.
Teddy bear, Teddy bear, show your shoe.
Teddy bear, Teddy bear, that will do.
Teddy bear, Teddy bear, run upstairs.
Teddy bear, Teddy bear, say your prayers.
Teddy bear, Teddy bear, blow out the light.
Teddy bear, Teddy bear, say good night.

The Farmer In the Dell
The farmer in the dell,
The farmer in the dell,
Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The farmer in the dell.

The farmer takes a wife,
The farmer takes a wife,
Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The farmer takes a wife.

The wife takes a child,
The wife takes a child,
Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The wife takes a child.

The child takes a nurse,
The child takes a nurse,
Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The child takes a nurse.

The nurse takes the cow,
The nurse takes the cow,
Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The nurse takes the cow.

The cow takes a dog,
The cow takes a dog,
Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The cow takes a dog.

The dog takes a cat,
The dog takes a cat,
Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The dog takes a cat.

The cat takes a rat,
The cat takes a rat,
Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The cat takes a rat.

The rat takes the cheese,
The rat takes the cheese,
Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The rat takes the cheese.

The cheese stands alone,
The cheese stands alone,
Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The cheese stands alone.
