Color black song
10 Color Songs Videos to Teach How to Spell Color Words – KindergartenWorks
Teach color words with the ever-popular frog street press color songs. Here are the top color word songs on video, in my opinion, for kindergarten.
I don't know about you but we used these songs repeatedly to teach how to spell color words in kindergarten. In fact, I love using songs so much that I created more songs to teach every sight word required by our district!
I'll list the videos for each color and let you know what is listed for each color. Plus, I share how I taught a few of these songs to my five and six year old students with great success.
It's my hope that by listing these all in one place you won't have to go searching for them in the future. There are a few free printables and resources at the end so be sure to check them out.
Use songs to learn to spell color words
The color songs were used to help build up the number of sight words my students knew and they also functioned as shared reading pieces.
Once students were familiar with the songs, they would practice the new sight words in these literacy centers:
- library center (small printed books of the songs)
- big book center (large 11x17 printed version books of the songs
- poetry center (printed on to sentence strips and word cards)
- listening center (small printed books with CD of song played multiple times)
- abc center (stamp the color words)
- pokey pin center (pin the color words in a sentence/phrase)
- word work center (build with playdough)
Color songs for kindergarten
Let's start with the red color song. This one is pretty short and is a great introduction to learning sight words.
This song lists just two things that are red: firetrucks and stop signs. This is a very short song.
For that reason, it's usually the first or second song I teach and also because the letters R-E-D (or even r-e-d) look from one another. Makes it easier for new little kinder eyes to distinguish between at the beginning of the year.
This Y-E-L-L-O-W color song lists these yellow things: baby ducks, daffodils, the sun, lemonade, scrambled eggs and a smiley face.
I taught motions with this song because there are a lot of items in it. I just made up the motions so you can too! Just keep them consistent the next time you sing the song {wink}

Sung to a familiar tune, the O-R-A-N-G-E color song feels a bit awkward to start but you'll quickly pick it up. It lists jack o'lanterns, oranges and carrots.
It's a great one to introduce after you've covered blue, red and yellow.
This is an orange color song video you can download.
Blue is the first or second color word I taught. The sky and the ocean are the only two things listed in it, which makes the blue color word song on the same level as the red one.
This B-L-U-E song speeds up at the end which is really fun for the kinders. They love it.
Here's another version of the B-L-U-E spells blue song. I add motions to this one so that when they speed up we can get really silly.

While we were at our seats doing an art project I would put on a playlist of the songs (but without visuals as to not distract the easily distractable kinders - like by turning off your computer monitor). They would softly sing along as they worked and it was great review of all the songs keeping them fresh the whole year through.
The G-R-E-E-N song is one of my favorites. It may be because they have one or two other color words under their belt and pick up this one pretty fast as a result.
The green color word song lists: caterpillars and grasshoppers. It's easy to create motions for.
I love using this word later in the school year too as a way to teach the "ee" vowel pattern since they've seen it in this word a gazillion times.
The black color song feels kind of long and has a few more obtuse things in it... like do most kids even know what Sunday shoes are anymore? It's catchy though which is helpful since there a lot of things listed: bats, jelly beans, cats, Sunday shoes and Santa's boots.
If you're longing for the little printable book template that goes with the color books then you'll appreciate this next version of the B-L-A-C-K song.
Here is a black color song video you can download.
I used these printable little books and enlarged them onto colored construction paper. I laminated them and bound one side.
They made for a great first set of big books for our big book literacy center and made teaching the words whole group a little easier with such a large model.
Okay, I'll admit that the B-R-O-W-N song is my least favorite. it's sung to the tune of Bingo, which may have something to do with it. .. but it may be because there are a good number of things listed.
The brown song includes: teddy bears, chocolate milk, chocolate candies, leaves, chocolate cake and squirrels.
Here is a brown color song video you can download.
It also could be that this one was tough to come up with motions for {wink} We did a "hug" for teddy bear since it was the only thing I could come up with on the spot. But, no matter whether I like it or not, using songs to teach really does work!
It's one of the secrets of teaching kindergarten I used all the time.
What I haven't mentioned yet was that part of the motions for learning these color songs is that we sign the letters.
Yep - we use sign language to spell out each color word. We use sign language every day along with our alphabet chart so we get really good at fingerspelling. Plus, I like to teach a few other signs to use so I can communicate across the classroom (or the gym during assembly) without speaking a word.
Being able to say, "Sit down!" or "Go!" without having to utter an actual word is pretty priceless... and goes a lot farther than just using the teacher eye I've perfected. Just sayin'
The purple song goes pretty fast for fingerspelling, but that makes it fun.
Here is an alternative P-U-R-P-L-E color song with a white background instead of balck in case that's easier on the eyes.
Purple includes these items: grapes and Kool-aid.
Here are two versions of the white color song. My kinders loved this color word song because they could get loud with saying "Boo!" and "Ho, ho, ho!"
The W-H-I-T-E song by frog street press has two verses and includes these white things: clouds, snow, ghosts, milk, glue and Santa's beard.
Here is a white color song video you can download.
And lastly - we've got the color pink.
I'll admit this one took me the longest to learn! The P-I-N-K color song goes fast because it is sung to the tune of Jingle Bells.
I usually saved this color song until later in the school year even though the word is shorter. You just don't see the word pink as often as the primary colors in most early leveled readers.
The pink color word song includes: cotton candy, pigs, Valentines, icing, bubble gum, balloons, girls with sock and bows.
Here is a pink color song video you can download.

Yegor Creed - Black mood color
(feat. Philip Kirkorov)
[Video version]:
Philip Kirkorov: Van, Vanechka (appeal to Ivan Urgant).
I already told you that I don't like this idea.
Don't like it, you understand? I do not like. Yes?
That's it, please excuse me - I have a second line.
Yegor Creed: Philip Bedrosovich? Hello.
Philip Kirkorov: Yes, Yegorushka!
Yegor Creed: How long will you be here?
- I'm driving up already, I'm driving up.
(To Timati: He says he's coming...)
I'll be there soon.
- Thank you. We wait.
[Dialogue in Timati's company store]:
Philip Kirkorov: Well, why
did you call me to this barber shop in the middle of the night?
Egor Creed: Well, actually we need to make a video.
Timati: Actually, then we need to sign
Philip Bedrosovich to the BLACKSTAR label.
Sign a contract with him as a new Artist.
Philip Kirkorov: [Laughter]. On what terms?
Timati: Philip Bedrosovich, let's agree!
Yegor Creed: But there is only one condition:
The mood color is not blue, but black.
Philip Kirkorov: Black? Hmm...
Timati: Philip Bedrosovich, we'll take you
to a completely new height!
[A secret door opens]:
Philip Kirkorov: Oh, Egor! How can I get through here!? Lord. Where are we going.
Yegor Creed: Philip Bedrosovich, we are going to make history.
[Introduction, Yegor Creed]:
My mood color is black.
Phil! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
[Chorus, Egor Creed + Phillip Kirkorov]:
My mood color is black (mood color is black)
Mood color is black (black, black)
My mood color is black (black, black)
Mood color is black (piu, pew, pow, wow!)
Mood color black.
Lipstick, liquor color.
She is wearing black style.
She feels like a goddess.
(Body like a Lamborghini)
[Verse 1, Egor Creed]:
I went out black (yeah!)
All my bitches love black (yeah)
All my cars are strictly black (wroom-wroom!)
My whole gang love black (black)!
I choose brunettes, although not against blondes,
But they are always last, e!
Rocker jeans, black leather is the principle.
Shining stone on the little finger, we are on the "black horses" princes.
[Transition, Egor Creed]:
Okay, okay, okay! I love white and yellow gold.
Okay, okay, okay! Dressed stylishly, but stylish doesn't mean expensive.
Even though it's expensive. What will I wear tomorrow, this question is debatable,
But today (what today?)
[Chorus, Egor Creed + Phillip Kirkorov]:
My mood color is black (mood color is black).
Mood color black (black, black).
My mood color is black (ha, ha, ha; black, black)
My mood color is black (piu, piu, piu!)
The mood color is black.
Lipstick, liquor color.
She is wearing black style.
She feels like a goddess.
(Body like a Lamborghini)
[Verse 2, Phillip Kirkorov]:
Your mom is at my concert.
All your relatives at my concert.
Pythagoras won't count all my hits.
Timati will not count all my show-offs.
I'm sassy, hype every year.
Martini in her hands, plus she's on style -
On black style, but I'm on style.
Everything that will soon be released in Louis, we have already bought.
[Transition, Philip Kirkorov]:
My bunny, I'm your bunny, my pop voice.
Yes, I am an affectionate bastard, because I am chocolate.
What will I wear tomorrow - this question is debatable (yes)
But today (what today?)
[Chorus, Egor Creed + Phillip Kirkorov]:
My mood color is black (mood color is black)
Mood color is black (black , black)
My mood color is black (ha, ha, ha; black, black)
My mood color is black (piu, piu, piu)
Mood color black.
Lipstick, liquor color.
She is wearing black style.
She feels like a goddess.
Mood color black.
Lipstick, liquor color (liquor color).
She is wearing black style.
She feels like a goddess.
My mood color is black (mood color is black)
Mood color is black (black, black)
My mood color is black (ha, ha, ha; black, black)
Mood color is black (piu, piu, piu)!
[Finale, video version]:

A fan of Philip Kirkorov:
This is for our King - Philip Bedrosovich.
