Redeemer of Israel Jingle Bells

How to Play:

Sing through Redeemer of Israel (flip chart) once before bringing out the jingle bell bracelets. We love bringing out our Jingle Bells and it’s easy to pick up a set of Jingle Bell Bracelets for cheap on Amazon! I love how colorful and fun this set is!

Now, explain to the kids that they’ll need to focus, because we’re going to ring only for some of the special select words from the song. Do you think you can follow the pattern?

Post the keyword poster up on the board, then show them an example by singing the first line and only ringing the bells as fast and long as you can while singing “Redeemer” then freeze the bells! Ring them out again on “delight.”

Can you do it just like that? I want to see how LOUD you can ring on the keywords and how perfectly still you can hold the bells on all the other words. Let’s try it together! Pass out jingle bell bracelets.

Sing through your selected first doing a loud consistent jingle for each of the keywords.

Now, let’s try it again and see if we can add one single jingle for all the “other” words.

REDEEMER / of / Israel / our / only / DELIGHT

Next do you think you can shake on a steady beat following the time signature? Add a jump on each of the keywords!

Now, you can repeat or mix and match any of the ideas above or add in these fun extension activities below to add in more variety!

More Fun Ways to Teach Redeemer of Israel Jingle Bell Patterns

Color Groups – Split the Primary up into 2 groups – one for each of the colors. (Ex: Red and Blue for the 1st verse). Have the kids only ring their bells on their colored words. You can point to their side of the room as a signal for Junior. Which side of the room can sing out the best?

Special Bell Words – Ring out the bells high above their heads OR tap the jingle bells on your palm for the special keyword with the bell marked next to it. This is just a fun bonus activity to keep them alert and paying attention.

Quiet Time – Try whisper singing and shaking super quiet for the keywords for a fun twist.

Skip Singing – Can you skip singing the keywords and just shake once for each syllable/note you would sing out instead.

Tag Team Singing – Alternate singing every other line. The red side starts, singing “Redeemer of Israel” then it switches to blue for “our only delight” following the matching keyword for the line.
