Chinese New Year (Lunar Near Year) starts on February 1 in 2022! Here, you’ll find lots of Chinese New Year (Lunar New Year) songs and rhymes for classroom or home. I also have links to free Chinese New Year educational videos for multiple ages.
If you’re looking for non-holiday winter songs and rhymes, check out my Free Winter Songs and rhymes for Circle Time. For other holidays, check out the links right above my signature.
There are lots of CDs you can buy, but I’m just listing free resources here. You can typically find links to buy the CDs for songs on YouTube if you wish. These are songs that I’ve found online for teachers and childcare providers. They are also great if you’re a homeschooler or parent supplementing your child’s learning at home. And I think they’re lots of fun for grandparents and anyone who enjoys spending time with a special child.
