Learn to Spell Colors Through Song

My little nephew started Kindergarten this school year. He is such a brilliant mind and soaks up information better than a sponge. He has always loved to sing and to have all eyes on him. He now goes around grandma and grandpa's house singing his color songs that jingle to the tune of popular nursery rhymes. These songs not only help him learn how to spell his colors, but also things that are the color he's singing about.

I love these songs so much and it's just so sweet to hear the little ones sing it, so I decided to share them with you.

Red

Tune: Are you Sleeping?

R-E-D, R-E-D

I can spell red, I can spell red.
Firetrucks are red
Stop signs are red, too

R-E-D, R-E-D

Blue

Tune: The Farmer in the Dell

B-L-U-E spells blue.
B-L-U-E spells blue.

Green

Tune: Bingo

There is a color we all know.
Can you guess what it is?
G-R-E-E-N, G-R-E-E-N, G-R-E-E-N
That's how you spell green.

Grass and leaves and trees are green
and grasshoppers are green, too.

G-R-E-E-N, G-R-E-E-N, G-R-E-E-N
I like green, don't you?
