Hello! We are starting our unit on coins and have been singing these coin songs for years! We typically write these songs on chart paper and hang it up, but if you have little space on your classroom walls, these smaller printable versions might be better for you! With the exception of the "Penny Song" and "I'm A Little Nickel" which was written by myself and my grade-level team, the other songs were found online through various blogs. Enjoy!
