What would life be without music? The world would be a very quiet place. Music is in many ways the fabric of our lives and the definition of society. It is a reminder of how things once were, an indication of how things are, and a view of where society is headed.

Music is an important part of the child care curriculum also. Young children love sound. Music activities and experiences help children practice important skills, including thinking, language, motor coordination and understanding emotions.

Today, I got an opportunity to revive a few songs that can be taught for the children. Here is a list of songs that I found to be simple and easy to learn for the kids.(a combination of English and Hindi)

1. Aao jhulen hum aur tum by Preethi Sagar
2. When you are happy and you know it, clap your hands
3. Postman Pat
4. We've Got the Whole World in Our Hands
5. Five Hundred Miles by The Brothers Four
6. Do-Re-Mi song from the movie The sound of Music
7. Que Sera Sera by Doris Day
8. Why Can't We Be Friends from the movie Bridge to Terabithia
9. Gudiyalieruva shelegalle devarante ( Kannada song)
10. Nellie the Elephant

Sing your heart out! It is great to go back singing the usual songs which were favorites and gave immense pleasure.
