Children's Handbell Collection

A set of six familiar children's songs and hymns written for 1-octave colored handbells (8 bells) (*Reproducible*)

It's never been easier to start playing handbells with preschoolers or K/1 children.

A printable, reproducible collection of six familiar children's songs and hymns.

Two versions of each song are included: one with colored letter names and one with colored noteheads on a music staff. Colors match the popular Rhythm Band handbells and Boomwhackers.

Written for just 8 bells, these pieces are easy to put together and accessible for smaller (and younger) groups of 4-8 ringers.

Songs include:

  • Jesus Loves Me - a classic children's hymn
  • Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star - a well-known folk song, perfect for a creation theme!
  • Joyful, Joyful - great for the season after Easter, or at the beginning of a new church/school year
  • Praise Him, Praise Him - a general song of praise that works well for Children's Sunday
  • I've Got Peace Like a River - includes optional verses about love and joy
  • Amazing Grace - a classic folk hymn based on the pentatonic scale

What other directors are saying:

It gave me my starting point.

"This color-coded song pack got my group of adults and elementary school students ringing and feeling successful out of the gate."

Bronwyn R. Fillion, RN, MS
