Where to find Childrens songs?

Since beginning my Profex I have discovered I am way out of the loop when it comes to children's songs.

I am hearing all these "new" to me songs and have no idea where I find these kinds of things.

An example is Louise the elephant, and today I heard another one about calling your name and not wanting to talk on the phone. I don't know what it is called.

I have lots of old nursery rhymes but they are more suitable for preschoolers than stage one students.

Can anyone advise where I might find good songs please?

Please answer this question using the comments section below, thanks

 Children's CD's
by: Julie

I've found some of the best CD's to be from the "You Gotta Get Up" series by Leonie Cecich. The songs are fun with lots of affordable, make-it- yourself props. All the songs reinforce therapy focus's such as Speech Therapy, OT, Kineisiology, etc, and is suitable for mainstream and special education. I may be biased because I currently work for her, but over here in the West, her music is much loved and heaps of teachers use it. Whenever I do relief teaching, it is always a big hit.
Her website is www.kidsnmusic.com.au

 kids songs
by: tracey

I have picked up some cheap cd's from bookclubs and cheap shops and there is a web site called livewire that you can download songs. Most department stores will have these sorts of cd's. I hope this helps.

Cheers.

 end of year concert
by: maria

Hi there... I'm having the same problem as you and need to find an appropriate end year song for my KG1 and KG2 learners. My problem is that it needs to be school or learning related -otherwise i would choose from any of the themes that are out there!

If anyone can recommend an enjoyable, jazzy, fun and uplifting song to end the year on I would be tremendously grateful :) thanks

 Peter Combe Songs
by: Donna

Hi Kylie

For children who are that little bit older (past the Head Shoulders Knees and Toes stage), I have used Peter Combe songs really successfully.

He has plenty of great cds out. They are funny and educational.

When I was relief teaching I always took my Peter Combe cd with me.

The children particularly loved the songs 'Mr Clickety Cane', 'A Parcel in the Post', and 'Juicy Juicy Green Grass'

I will keep an eye out for more websites that might help also.

Cheers
