Among the age group, I have found the most commonly requested song is "Twinkle, twinkle little star". It's a tough one (sarcasm).
A funny revelation I had was that twinkle twinkle sounds EXACTLY the same as the ABC song. It's like a Weird Al Yankovich thing. In case you were not aware of this, please take a moment to sing both of those songs. It should take less than 60 seconds, unless you're belting it out for the bleachers.
Here is a very quick tutorial of, as I like to call it, "Twinkle twinkle, ABCs".
The progression in C:
C - G - F - C -
Twinkle twinkle little star
F - C - G - C
How I wonder what you are
C - F - C - G -
Up above the world so high
C - F - C - G
Like a diamond in the sky
C - G - F - C -
Twinkle twinkle little star
F - C - G - C
How I wonder what you are
If this is not the right pitch for you, try the progression in G:
G - D - C - G -
C - G - D - G
G - C - G - D
G - C - G - D
G - D - C - G -
C - G - D - G
For other pitches, just ask. Whatever your voice is willing to do, there is a pitch for that.
I hope these songs successfully enter your home and get your kids bouncing around before bedtime! Enjoy.
