Song Books I like to have two sets of books for the first few weeks of school. One set I call my "comfort" books. These are familiar songs or chants that I use for transitions. The books then become the first books to go into their independent book tubs. I have about thirty but thought you might enjoy my top ten. Some teachers tell me that their weak voice stops them from singing but believe me the children will love your voice. My husband actually laughs when he hears a student admire my voice!!!

They are all fun to sing and familiar to the Kinders. Hope that you enjoy my list. Please share your top ten Kindergarten song books, I would love to add to my collection .
