Kindergarten Color Songs

Every week Connor learns a new color song in kindergarten. Here he is singing his heart out.



These are the words to these adorable songs:

BLUE: To the tune of “The Farmer in the Dell”

B-L-U-E spells blue, B-L-U-E spells blue, hi-ho did you know B-L-U-E spells blue. The big sky is blue, the ocean is too. Hi-ho did you know B-L-U-E spells blue.

RED: To the tune of “Frere Jacque”

R-E-D red, R-E-D red, I can spell red, I can spell red. Fire trucks are red. STOP signs are red too, R-E-D, R-E-D.

GREEN: To the tune of “Row, Row, Row Your Boat”

G-R-E-E-N, G-R-E-E-N, I know how to spell green, G-R-E-E-N. Caterpillars are green and grasshoppers too. I know how to spell green G-R-E-E-N.

YELLOW: To the tune of “If You’re Happy and You Know It”

Y-E-L-L-O-W spells yellow. Y-E-L-L-O-W spells yellow. Like the early morning sun when the day has just begun, Y-E-L-L-O-W spells yellow.

Daffodils and baby ducks are yellow. Lemonade and scrambled eggs are yellow. I like the smiley face that’s yellow, he’s such a HAPPY fellow. Y-E-L-L-O-W spells yellow.

PURPLE: To the tune of “Camptown Races”

P-U-R-P-L-E, Purple, purple, P-U-R-P-L-E, purple’s what that spells. Purple grapes on the vine; purple kool-aid’s fine. P-U-R-P-L-E, purple’s what that spells.

PINK: To the tune of “Jingle Bells”

Cotton candy, fat pink pigs, girls with socks and bows, P-I-N-K, P-I-N-K, that is how it goes. Bubble gum, valentines, these are all pink too. Pink icing and pink balloons, we can spell can’t you? PINK!

BROWN: To the tune of “BINGO”

There is a color we all know, can you guess what it is? B-R-O-W-N, B-R-O-W-N, B-R-O-W-N, that’s how we spell brown. Teddy bears and squirrels are brown; autumn leaves are too. Chocolate candy’s always brown, chocolate cake is always brown, chocolate milk is always brown. I like brown, don’t you? Yes!

BLACK: To the tune of “She’ll Be Coming Around the Mountain”

B-L-A-C-K spells black. B-L-A-C-K spells black. Flying bats are black, scary cats are black, jelly beans are black, I like black. B-L-A-C-K spells black; B-L-A-C-K spells black. Sunday shoes are black, Santa’s boots are black, B-L-A-C-K spells black.

WHITE: To the tune of “Little Brown Jug”

W-H-I-T-E that spells white, sing with me. Milk is white and so is glue, ghosts are white and they say BOO! W-H-I-T-E that spells white, sing with me. The clouds above, the snow below, Santa’s beard, Hohoho!

ORANGE: To the tune of “Mr. Blue” or “One little, two little, three little Indians”

O-R-A-N-G-E, O-R-A-N-G-E, O-R-A-N-G-E, orange is what that spells. Jack-o-lanterns are always orange, carrots are always orange, oranges are always orange. O-R-A-N-G-E.

GRAY: Connor’s song for GRAY (he invented this), to the tune of “Angels We Have Heard on High”

G-R-A-Y, G-R-A-Y, G-R-A-Y, fountains are gray. Metal’s gray, G-R-A-Y and that’s the end. G-R-A-Y!

Sooooo cute! I'll probably be home schooling Brooke for Kindergarten (the alternative is to enroll her in a class of 30 kindergartners) so I LOVE all the ideas I can get. I love your updates on the twins. Can't wait till I find out whether I need to get pink, blue, or one of each for the new additions!

Good job, Connor! Sounds like school is great fun! (I'll be thinking of a tune for orange). I'm sooooo excited for you guys to be parents again - you are great. I'm sure Connor will love sharing his songs with his siblings :)

He is so cute and I see you in him Melanie. I have been observing in a kindergarten class these last few weeks and it is so cute to see them learning new things everyday.

I am working towards getting my certification in Elementary School teaching.
