I've heard Twinkle Twinkle Christmas Star, with the word Christmas exchanged for little but no other changes (!). Has anyone heard any other festive versions at playgroups etc they can share? Thanks Xmas Grin

Instead of sleeping rabbits; sleeping reindeer. Instead of Peter rabbit has a fly upon his nose; Father Christmas has a fly upon his nose. ?

to the tune of frere jacques:
Christmas puddings x2
steaming hot x2
pour on custard x2
eat a lot x2!

to the tune of 5 currant buns in a baker's shop:
5 christmas trees stood all alone
their hearts were sad cos they didn't have a home
chop went the axe, down went the tree
off it went to a happy family

4 Christmas trees...

To the tune of I'm a little teapot
I'm a little snowman round and fat
With a wooly scarf and a little bobble hat
Can you count my buttons 1 2 3
pick up some snow and throw it at me!

To the tune of 5 current buns
5 Christmas cakes in a bakers shop
Round and fat with icing on the top
Along came (insert a Childs name) with a penny one day
Bought a Christmas cake and took it away

Also to the tune of frere jacques

Father Christmas Father Christmas
He got stuck he got stuck
Climbing down the chimney climbing down the chimney
What bad luck what bad luck

Twinkle twinkle Christmas lights
Father Christmas came last night
Down the chimney with all the toys
Woke me up with all the noise
Twinkle twinkle Christmas
Lights Father Christmas came last night

Harps, haloes (to the tune of Heads, shoulders, knees and toes)
Harps, haloes, flap your wings, flap your wings
Harps, haloes, flap your wings, flap your wings
For we are angels, hear us sweetly sing.
Harps, haloes, flap your wings, flap your wings

Incy wincy spider climbed up the Christmas tree
Down came the snow and incy wincy freezed
On came the Christmas lights and melted all the snow
So incy wincy spider had another go

My little girl sings:

Twinkle, twinkle Christmas star
How I wonder what you are.
Santa needs your shining light,
Guide him on his way tonight.

I like that!

WHEN SANTA GOT STUCK UP THE CHIMMNEY

Wen Santa got stuck up the chimney
He began to shout
You girls and boys, if you want any toys
You better pull me out
My beard is black
I?ve got soot in my sack
My nose is tickily too
When Santa got stuck up the chimney
Achoo, achoo, achoo

Our nursery does:

Twinkle twinkle Christmas star
You have travelled very far
There's no place for you to sleep
Only with the ox and sheep
Twinkle twinkle Christmas star
You have travelled very far
