Four Goodbye Songs For Preschool Music Class

April 7, 2021 by Megan

Just as it’s important to mark the beginning of a preschool music class with a hello song, it’s just as important to have a closing ritual to signify the end of your class.

Singing a goodbye song is a helpful way to help young children understand that music class is over and that it’s time to transition to the next part of their day.

I find that hello songs are a little easier to come by than goodbye songs. Whenever I discover a great goodbye song, I make sure to hang on to it!

Here are four goodbye songs that I use regularly in my preschool music classes. Click the links below to access free, printable sheet music and lyrics for each song.

  1. Bread and Butter – This is a great little chant that let’s kids explore many different musical concepts as they say goodbye. They can say it high, low, fast, slow, loud, quiet and more.
  2. Open Shut Them – I’ve used this song in my preschool music classes for years, but I only recently discovered that there’s a cute goodbye verse for it. This is one of my favorite songs to end my classes with.
  3. See You Later, Alligator – This song is to the tune of Clementine and kids love it! Each line is a clever way to say goodbye.
  4. It’s Time To Say Goodbye To All My Friends – This song is to the tune of If You’re Happy And You Know It. It has simple words and it’s quick and easy to learn.
