This past weekend, two of our grandchildren were guests at our home. On Saturday morning, My husband sat at the grand piano and played Christmas songs (and we all sang) while I prepared breakfast. The fun part was discovering the favorites of an eight and a six year old
The following hit their list, and I’ve added links to YouTube versions.
- “All I Want for Christmas is You” – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXQViqx6GMY
- “Silent Night” – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-28cdRYzR4w
- “Mr. Santa” – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf0HLB8BPIg
- “Jingle Bell” – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQjrvHaWFM0
I asked my husband for his favorite Christmas tune. “Would you like my Christmas Playlist that has 393 songs and lasts 1 day?”
My favorites – so many songs tell us about the joys of the biggest birthday celebration in history. Here are my current top three.
- “Mary, Did You Know?” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifCWN5pJGIE
- “Oh Holy Night” – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZ-8jYpa1-o
- “What Child is This?” – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbvwwwTqeRo
I agree with my husband that the playlist of traditional Christmas carols and songs are too numerous to name.
What is your favorite Christmas song?
