Letter Gg Music

Here is the music we had for the
Letter Gg

For Gg week we sang about our mighty God. I had a copy of the Elementary Praise songs we use at our Christian school for chapel. We sang Our God is A Great Big God and There Is No God like Our God. It's so amazing to be home with my sweet and sassy little Shortcake teaching her that God is far bigger than we can ever imagine. No one and no thing can compare to Him!




My God Is So Big by the Wonderkids is now a new family favorite. Even my almost two year old sings out "BIG" every time!





Frog Street's I Can Spell Green Song fit right in to Gg week! From caterpillars to grasshoppers to

Letter Oo Music

We study each letter for two weeks.

Here is the music we had for the
Letter Oo

(Just click on the pictures to find the MP3 on Amazon!)

We had a blast singing On Top of Spaghetti. I had this from a CD not available on Amazon. We had fun doing some silly motions with this one!



I love teaching my kiddos lots of variety of music. From Pop Rock Christian Music to classical to beautiful hymns.

During Oo week we learned O the Deep, Deep Love of
Jesus By Westmont College Praise Team. I tend to sing this song a lot around bed time! Such beautiful lyrics of solid truth!




A great classic from my childhood O Be Careful Little Eyes by the Cedarmont Kids. This song emphasizes that while God, our Father is looking down in love, he desires for us to follow His Will. Shortcake is learning that God knows everything and that we should obey Him because He loves us.









 O Worship the King / This Is My Father's World from the Praise Baby Collection was a great addition to our Letter Oo.

As we sang this song we would make the O with our arms. This was easy peasy for my little O-H-I-O fans :)






How can you not sing O MacDonald Had a Farm by Baby Genius on Oo week? We loved looking at animals that started with the letter Oo so of course we had to find them on the farm :)







Since we are talking about Oo is an ostrich and octopus, we are talking about the color orange for these 2 weeks.

When I taught First Grade, I loved using Frog Street's Colors books and songs! Currently Amazon offers the flip charts & music here. I just recently found some YouTube videos for the color songs!

During the letter Oo week, we sang "I Can Spell Orange". It talks about how carrots, jack o' lanterns, and oranges are always orange.

Letter Ll: Music

We study each letter for two weeks.

Here is the music we had for the
Letter Ll

The first song we did was a favorite classic of mine. I LOVE it because it teaches how to spell the word LOVE while introducing my kiddos to Jazz & Blues :) Of course I'm talking about Nat King Cole's L-O-V-E song!!

My Little Shortcake LOVED dancing to Nat King Cole!!





Part of our Bible time is also music time. I just love Steve Green's music! It is such a great way to have little one's learn bible verses!

This week we are learning Deuteronomy 6:5a NIV. "Love the LORD your God with all your heart." Steve Green's song "You Shall Love the Lord" is set to Matthew 22:37 but it was still a perfect match!!


During our first L week, we learned that Ll is for ladybug. I found this really cute video/song from Little Fingers that Play: Little Ladybug. This ladybug loses her spots and collects them counting from 1-10. This went perfect with learning ten this week! If I had ambition, I could totally see this with a felt ladybug with black felt spots to do as we sang this song!




During our second L week, we focused on Ll is for leaf. I found this song from Great Worship Songs for Kids 4 called "Autumn's A Song".

It talks about the seasons and how God has blessed us with Harvest time. The Autumn colors remind us that God is the giver of beautiful things. "Autumn's a song creation sings".







Since we are talking about Ll is a ladybug and the colors of fall, we are talking about the color red for these 2 weeks.

When I taught First Grade, I loved using Frog Street's Colors books and songs! We sang "I Can Spell Red". It talks about how firetrucks and stop signs are red!



I Can Spell Red
(tune of Are You Sleeping)

R-E-D red, R-E-D red,
I can spell red.
I can spell red.
Firetrucks are red.
Stop signs are red too.
R-E-D, R-E-D


(I wish they had this in MP3 format though so I could have them right on my MP3 player!)
