Some preschools do not celebrate Christmas or any of the winter holidays. Therefore, I have made separate sections for different fingerplays and songs to keep them in their own categories and easier for you to find and search for. These are all basic songs for Winter.
I'm a Little Snow Person
(I'm a Little Teapot)
I'm a little snow person
Short and fat
Here are my buttons,
here is my hat.
When the sun comes out,
I cannot stay.
Slowly I just melt away.
Dance Like Snowflakes
(Frere Jacques)
Dance like snowflakes, X2
In the air X2
Whirling, twirling snowflakes X2
Here and there X2
Sprinkle, Sprinkle Little Snow
(twinkle, twinkle)
Sprinkle, sprinkle, little snow;
falling down on us below;
small and white powdery,
such a joy for all to see.
Sprinkle, sprinkle, little snow;
falling down on us below.
Five Little Snow People
Five little snow people standing in a row.
The first one said, "We are made out of snow."
The second one said, "I have a hat and button eyes."
The third one said, "We look like funny guys."
The fourth one said,"Fell how the cold wind blows!"
The fifth one said, "It might freeze my carrot nose!"
Then drip, drip, went the snow people
For it was a sunny day.
and the five little snow people drip, dripped right away
I Love Snow
(Three Blind Mice)
I love snow, I love snow.
Soft, white snow; soft, white snow.
It falls on the ground so soft and white.
Sometimes it falls all through the night.
Did you ever see such a beautiful sight
As soft white snow?
Five Little Snowmen
Five little snowmen
Went out to play,
over the hills and far away.
When the sun came out,
It melted one away.
Four little snowmen came back that day
Repeat the poem, replacing the numbers appropriately, when you get to zero, use the stanza below.
Zero little snowmen
Went out to play,
over the hills and far away,
But when winter came back,
It brought snow along the way.
The five little snowmen came back that day.
Snowflake, Snowflake
(teddybear teddy bear turn around)
Snowflake, snowflake dance around,
Snowflake, snowflake, touch the ground,
Snowflake, snowflake soft and white,
Snowflake, snowflake snowball fight!
Snowflake, snowflake in the air,
Snowflake, snowflake everywhere!
