Easy Christmas Songs for Kids

November 11, 2019 By Sara Mullett 7 Comments

Whether you are at home with your child or teaching in a preschool or primary school, these easy Christmas songs for Kids will come in very handy as the Christmas season approaches.

The more traditional Christmas songs we all know and love can be a bit too much for little ones to grasp. So these have been written specially for the younger ones in mind.

There are some action songs, a couple to sing with puppets, and some craft activities to accompany them, so there’s something for everyone from toddlers to children of around 7 years of age.

The links below will take you to each song where you can find the words and chime bar video clips to show you how it goes. You will probably recognise some of the familiar tunes, and this should make them easier to pick up and remember in time for Christmas.
