# Make a custom ABC song, with your child's name if you like A custom alphabet song walks through the letters with words your child already knows, such as B for bath or D for your dog Daisy, and can sing their name in the chorus. You type the words you want, read the lyrics before anything is sung, and get a song of about two minutes for home or class. ## What children can learn from an ABC song at each age - **Toddlers** enjoy the rhythm and join in on a few letters, often the first letter of their own name. - **Preschoolers** learn letter names in order and start linking a letter to a word: M is for Mom, S is for sock. - **Kindergarten children** move from letter names to letter sounds. For that step, a [phonics song](/learn/phonics-song-maker) works better than a letter-name song. One honest point: singing the alphabet in order is not the same as recognizing letters. Children who can sing all 26 may still not know which shape is K. Pair the song with letter cards, a puzzle or magnetic letters. ## What to type in the form - **Which letters.** All 26 in two minutes goes quickly. For toddlers, half the alphabet per song (A to M, then N to Z) is calmer. A pack of 5 lets you make a little series. - **One word per letter from your child's world:** the cat's name, a favorite food, Grandpa. Real words stick better than "X is for xylophone". - **The name and its first letter**, if you want the chorus to sing "N is for Noah". - **The pace.** Ask for it slow enough to point at cards. - **Tricky letters.** Few child words start with X, so ask for "fox" or "box" with an x sound, and choose Q, U and Z words your child can picture. ## How to use the song so the letters stick Play it once or twice a day for a week, then keep it in the rotation. Hold up the letter card as each letter is sung. After a few days, pause the song before a letter and let your child call it out: that is call and response, and it tells you which letters they really know. Make the child's own initial the big moment, with a jump or a clap. In class, give each child a letter card and ask them to stand up when theirs is sung. ## Accuracy: read the lyrics first The writer is asked to keep the letters in order and to use words that start with each letter, but you should still read every line before the song is made. Check that no letter is missing or doubled. Watch for words whose first sound does not match the letter, like "knee" for K, "phone" for P or "Charlie" for C, which can confuse early readers. Check the spelling of your child's name. If a line is wrong, change the word yourself or ask for a fresh draft. ## How it works here Choose a style (playful and bouncy suits most ABC songs), an age band and a voice. The lyrics arrive about a minute after payment; you edit them, then the song is sung in about 2 to 4 minutes. It is a new tune, not the classic ABC melody. You can make up to 3 sung versions and keep the clearest. Download the MP3 or share the private page.

The chorus sings N is for Noah. Slow enough to point at letter cards on the fridge.". **Noah's Alphabet Song** ``` [Verse 1] A is for apple, red and round B is for bath, a splashing sound C is for cat, our Pepper purrs D is for Dad, the best that were E is for eggs, we crack them pop F is for frog boots, hop hop hop [Chorus] N is for Noah, that is me Point to the letters, one two three N is for Noah, sing it loud N is for Noah, I feel proud [Verse 2] G is for Grandma, warm and kind H is for hat, on my mind I is for ice cream, cold and sweet J is for jump, with both my feet K is for kite, up in the sky L is for lion, hear him sigh [Chorus] N is for Noah, that is me Point to the letters, one two three N is for Noah, sing it loud N is for Noah, I feel proud [Bridge] M is for milk, in my cup O is for octopus, arms go up [Chorus] N is for Noah, that is me Point to the letters, one two three N is for Noah, sing it loud N is for Noah, I feel proud ``` ## What it cannot do It will not be sung to the classic ABC tune, and the music model sometimes runs two letters together or blurs one, so listen to each version before you teach with it. It writes a song for listening and singing along; it is not a reading program and will not test your child. ## Questions **Will it use the classic ABC tune?** No. Each song gets a new melody. That has one upside: children cannot slur "L M N O P" into one sound the way they often do with the classic tune, if you ask for one letter per beat. **Can it spell my child's name letter by letter?** Yes, ask for it in the details, for example "spell L-U-C-A in the chorus". Short names work best. The singer may run letters together, so check each version and keep the clearest. **Can I make a song for just one letter?** Yes. "The letter B, with five things in our house that start with B" makes a good short-focus song. A pack of 20 covers a letter-of-the-week plan for most of a term. **What age is a custom ABC song for?** Most families use one between about two and six. Pick the age band in the form; the writer keeps lines shorter and more repetitive for younger children. **Can I play it in my classroom or post it online?** Yes, at home, in a classroom or nursery, and on your own channels.
