Tot mai multi parinti din Romania aleg sa ii invete pe cei mici colinde de Craciun in limba engleza. Aceasta activitate nu doar ca aduce veselie in casa, dar are si numeroase beneficii educationale pentru copii!
In primul rand, cei mici invata limba engleza intr-un mod placut. Prin repetarea versurilor, cei mici asimileaza expresii noi, isi dezvolta vocabularul si incep sa inteleaga structurile de baza ale limbii engleze. Ritmul si rima cantecelor ii ajuta sa retina cuvintele mult mai usor. De asemenea, colindele in limba engleza ii ajuta pe copii sa se familiarizeze cu sunetele specifice limbii. Astfel, ei isi imbunatatesc pronuntia, ascultand si imitand melodii interpretate de vorbitori nativi.
In general, copiii pot incepe sa invete cantece in limba engleza de la o varsta foarte frageda, chiar de la 2-3 ani, cand sunt receptivi si curiosi sa exploreze sunete noi. La aceasta varsta, cantecele simple, cu versuri scurte si repetitive, sunt cele mai potrivite.
Colinde in engleza usor de invatat
Pentru a face procesul de invatare mai interesant, iata o lista de colinde potrivite pentru cei mici:
Deck the halls
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
‘Tis the season to be jolly
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Don we now our gay apparel
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
Troll the ancient Yule-tide carol
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Jingle Bells
Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bobtails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight, oh!
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
Now the ground is white
Go it while you're young
Take the girls tonight
Sing this sleighing song
Get a bobtailed bay
Two forty for his speed
And hitch him to an open sleigh
And you will take the lead
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride

Oh, what fun it is to ride
In one horse open sleigh!
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
You know Dasher and Dancer
And Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid
And Donner and Blitzen
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all?
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games
Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say
“Rudolph with your nose so bright
Won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?”
Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee (yipee)
“Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
You’ll go down in history”

Santa Claus is coming to town
Oh, he sees you when you're sleeping

He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Oh, you better watch out

Colinde de Craciun in engleza, cu tematica religioasa
Joy to the World
Joy to the world! The Lord is come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing
Joy to the Earth! The Saviour reigns
Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy
No more let sins and sorrow grow
Nor thorns infest the ground
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found
Far as the curse is found
Far as, far as, the curse is found
He rules the world with truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love
And wonders of His love
And wonders, wonders, of His love!
