Songs of Thankfulness

Updated: Nov 4


MY LATEST THANKFULNESS SONGS |


Thankful in My Bones


Listen On:

Thankful in my bones is a calm/slow movement song with a theme of thankfulness!!


Feeling thankful in my bones, feeling thankful to my toes.

It's giving me a tickle all the way up to my nose!


I've got a thankful feeling and I can't keep it inside!

This thankfulness has given me a joy i cannot hide!


A thankful....

jump! ...

spin! ...

dance! ...

...heart.


Please Pass the Pumpkin Pie

Listen On:

Please Pass the Pumpkin Pie is a song that incorporates manners (like saying please and thank you!) with other language goals (like saying one-syllable to six-syllable food words!)


Please pass the... rolls! Why thank you!

Please pass the ... green beans!

... pumpkin pie!

... mashed potatoes

...cranberry sauce

... macaroni and cheese!!!

...yum!! and thank you!

And here's a few FREEBIES!!



One of my favorite Thanksgiving Songs of all time is Ben Rector's "The Thanksgiving Song." It's a song about celebrating with family and friends, and the heart of gratitude. I've created a few FREE printables to go along with it to facilitate conversations about holiday traditions and thankfulness!

There's a coloring sheet - draw your family traditions or something you're thankful for while you listen! Question cards - tape the the bottom of a frame drum and pass it around while the music plays. When the music stops, the person who ends up with it reads the card and answers the question! OR place numbers on the back of the cards, play and pause the song, calling on a student to pick a number! They answer the card of that number! Are your students non-speaking? Use the worksheets that include pictures! They can point to or circle their answer, or use a device to share their own ideas! Check out a demo, below!


Thank You | Patina Jackson


You can also use this simple song to the tune of "Skip to My Lou" for students to identify what they are thankful for! Use the FREE printable songwriting sheet, or picture cards!


Don't forget your free printables!!
