Free Songs about Obeying the Rules {Character Education Resources}

I’ve been wanting to cover the character trait of obedience for a long time, but I couldn’t decide how to include it in my character education songs. There are just so many ways to look at obedience. Most of us want our children to have good behavior, but we might not want them to be blindly obedient. We want them to be able to think for themselves. But most of us can agree that it’s important for both children and adults to be able to follow rules and laws for smooth functioning of the family, classroom, and community. So I’m sharing songs about obeying the rules, which can be adapted for classrooms, homeschools, and family rules.

At the same time, many of us value being obedient to God. So I’ll have a section with Christian obedience songs for kids.

Just choose whichever songs are best for your children or students. And see my virtues unit studies for unit studies that include obedience along with other positive character traits. Most important is that your children or students understand your reasoning about rules and obedience. Have discussions! And, of course, be a good role model.
