Song Page
At Squirrels, we love to sing. Song time is an important part of our day where we can all come together and join in. We often use actions or signing during our songs to reinforce the words and introduce important concepts such as days of the week, counting and body parts, as well as emotions and routines.
This page will give you the words to some of our most popular songs so that parents can join in too.
