5 Easy Christian Preschool Songs
Preschool age is a fun time. Preschool songs are a great way to teach kids about Jesus. In this post we will share some great preschool songs that you can use at home, at school or even while you play with the kids. They are sure to find them fun as they learn about Jesus and the teachings of the Bible. Enjoy.
Why Sing Songs?
Singing preschool songs serve many purposes. As Christians we believe in teaching our children the Word of God and preschool songs is an excellent method for helping them to remember God’s word.
Preschool songs serve as great transition songs to help kids easily move from one activity such as play time to another such as story time. These preschool songs often includes actions and so can help to get the “wiggles out”.
For some reason we tend to remember songs more than spoken words so preschool songs are a great way to help kids remember important truths such as the fact that they are special and loved by Jesus.
What Is The Easiest Song For Kids Teaching That Kids Are Special?
A great preschool song that every kid will find easy to learn is Jesus loves me this I know. John 3: 16 lets us know that God loved us so much that he sent his son to pay the price for our sin so we could have everlasting life. “Jesus loves me this I know” is a song written by Anna Bartlett Warner. The words of this song are:
Verse 1
Jesus loves me, this I know,
for the Bible tells me so.
Little ones to him belong;
they are weak, but he is strong.
Refrain
Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so.
Verse 2
Jesus loves me he who died
heaven’s gate to open wide.
He will wash away my sin,
let his little child come in. [Refrain]
Verse 3
Jesus loves me, this I know,
as he loved so long ago,
taking children on his knee,
saying, “Let them come to me.” [Refrain]
Another simple preschool song for kids based on this song is “I am so special.” This song is on the Bible Activities for kids youtube channel and is to the tune of Jesus Loves Me. The words for this preschool song are:
Jesus made me this I know
I am special yes it’s so
There is no one just like me
God made me unique you see
I am so special
I am so special
I am so special
Cause Jesus made me so (repeat)

Children Songs About Happiness
A great way to be happy is to sing preschool songs about happiness. One of my favorite is “I’m happy all the time” While we aren’t always happy because emotions come and go, with Jesus’ help we can choose to let the negative emotions go and be happy in Jesus because he gives us his peace and happiness. Here are the words to the song.
I’m in-right, out-right, up-right, down-right,
Happy all the time.
I’m in-right, out-right, up-right, down-right,
Happy all the time.
Since Jesus Christ came in, and cleansed my heart from sin,
I’m in-right, out-right, up-right, down-right,
Happy all the time.
