Circle Song

 Circle Song
This thumbnail is distorted by compression, the shape shown does not reflect the shape of the circle in the video.
Teach your children about the shape of a circle with this fun upbeat song.

The important concepts of a circle are highlighted and repeated in the song. My circle song describes the circle shape with the following:

  • A circle has no straight lines 
  • A circle has no beginning and no end
  • A circle is one closed curve
  • A circle has all points in the curve equal in distance form the center

These are all essential concepts about the circle shape. I add to the fun of learning and sing several familiar things children see and know about that are in the circle shape.  The song and video also provide real world examples of the circle, such as a tire and a full pizza.

I wanted to write songs about the shapes that explain the essential concepts of one shape at time so children can focus on each shape more thoroughly.
