Songs of the Child World

My daughter, Karen gave me a wonderful book of children's songs called Songs of the Child World by Jessie L. Gaynor and Alice C.D. Riley. It was published in 1897 by the John Church Company. Many of the tunes with accompanying chords will be added here for your musical enjoyment. I use these as sight reading exercises for my students. You can Print the words to the children's songs.

The Finger Family Grandma's Knitting Song The Target Maker Rub a Dub Dub Oh Wide, Wide World Raindrops The River The Rainbow The Birth of the Butterfly Mistress Doh and Her Neighbors

The Fishes Boating Song Dance of the Rainbow Fairies The Wind Mill The Wind The Light Bird Greeting to the Sun The Giants Welcome Song Good bye

Songs of the Child World No. 1

This group of songs from Songs of the Child World , published in 1897 contains all the songs of the book above with complete copies of the piano music. The words are by Alice Riley and the music was written by Jessie Gaynor. The links go directly to the PDFs which you can freely print for non-profit distribution. These are excellent songs for pre-schoolers and kindergarten age children. The piano arrangements are suitable for early learners and the songs can be used for sight-reading practice for more advanced piano and keyboard students. Note: The midis were transposed to a key which would be a comfortable vocal range for the children. The range for most of the songs is middle C to 4th line D in the treble. The sheet music may be in a higher key. In order to see the sheet music and hear the midi at the same time you can open two browsers of this page, make them each half page and view them side by side. After scanning the music I used Smart Score X Midi Edition to make the midis, then tweaked the scores with Cakewalk Music Creator. Please excuse the errors. Most of them were caused by the quality of the page I was scanning. I hope these scores and midis will be helpful to you. Preface
