Circle Time Transition Song for Preschool and Kindergarten

CIRCLE TIME TRANSITION SONG: Criss Cross Applesauce Song for preschool and kindergarten – the perfect way to get your circle time started! This cheerful, one minute song begins with a bell sound that signals the transition to circle time. The lyrics encourage preschool and kindergarten children to move to the rug (quietly!) with walking feet and sit down, criss cross applesauce. A fun countdown focuses children for the start of circle time.

Lyrics:
Criss cross, applesauce It’s circle time, hooray!
We hear the bell and then we know
It’s time to start the day

With walking feet, quietly
To the rug we go
On our bottoms, down we sit
Criss cross, don’t you know?

Criss cross, applesauce
It’s circle time, hooray!
We hear the bell and then we know
It’s time to start the day

Stories, songs, sharing, too
We’ll listen and have fun!
Circle time begins right now in
Five, four, three, two, one!
Circle time!
