Songs to play for little kids at camp

Unread post by geo3217 » Thu Jan 31, 2008 1:24 am

I might be volunteering this year at this camp for kids, and I was wondering if anyone knew any specific songs that kids go crazy for. I'm thinking something along the lines of Collide by Howie Day and Slide by the Goo Goo Dolls (they like that right?) but I need more. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Or if anyone knew of a good book with lots of songs like that, that would work too. Thanks.

I don't know about Slide man, isn't it about teenage pregnancy and abortion or something? :lol:

Pizzle can definitely hook you up with some Row Row Row Your Boat tabs

Yeah but they did an Elmo cover for it. No joke. And if it's good enough for Elmo, it's good enough for little kids.

And they're a mix of kids from 7-16 years old.

How the hell are you going to appeal to both 7 year olds and 16 year olds?

I dk... maybe they'd enjoy Blister in the Sun.... and then I'd never be invited back...

Seriously though, if I just played some stuff that kids about 13-14 would like, the other kids would probably enjoy it too I think.
