Do you like to sing to your child as you put them to bed? Want some new songs to try? Looking for a transition song to sing just before nap time? Then you’re in the right place.
Below are three original super simple lullabies for you and your children to learn.
Since these are original words, please include my name with them.
Time to Sleep
Words by: S. J. Little
Tune: Kum Ba Yah
Time to sleep, my child, time to sleep.
Time to sleep, my child, time to sleep.
Time to sleep, my child, time to sleep.
Hush now, time to sleep.
If you want to change up this simple lullaby, try singing “go to sleep”, “you can sleep”, or “let’s all sleep” instead of “time to sleep”.
Hush Hush
Words by: S. J. Little
Tune: Row Row Row Your Boat
Hush, hush, hush, it’s time,
Close your eyes and dream,
Quietly, quietly, quietly, quietly,
Snuggle down for sleep.
Count Slow
Words by: S. J. Little
Tune: Are You Sleeping
Time for sleeping, time for sleeping,
Close your eyes, close your eyes.
Lie still and count slow, lie still and count slow.
One, two, three; four, five, six.
Se-ven ei-ght; ni-ne t-en,
Eleven twelve; thirteen fourteen,
Fifteen sixteen seventeen; eighteen nineteen twenty.
Hush now sleep. Hush now sleep.
