More about this title

About the Author: Ron Manus

Ron Manus

Ron Manus represents the third generation of his family shaping Alfred Music's direction. Since joining the company in 1988, he has moved from leading the New Media division in its early stages to serving as Chief Business Development Officer, overseeing the company's expansion into digital instruction, streaming platforms, and contemporary music formats.

Manus played a pivotal role during Alfred Music's organizational restructuring in the 1990s and its landmark 2005 acquisition of Warner Brothers Publications. That acquisition brought the catalogs of George and Ira Gershwin, Duke Ellington, Led Zeppelin, the Eagles, and dozens of other iconic artists under one roof, significantly expanding the scope of music available to educators and students.

Why we love this

The direct correlation to Alfred's Kid's Ukulele Course means zero guesswork about pacing and skill levels. Young players stay engaged because they're performing recognizable holiday songs they actually want to play, which transforms practice from an obligation into celebration.

What to expect

These Christmas songs arrive dressed in accessible yet complete arrangements that honor the warmth of the originals. Playing them on ukulele captures something joyful and intimate, turning familiar melodies into a young player's first real gift to listeners.

Who it's for

Young ukulele students working through Alfred's Kid's Ukulele Course or Teach Your Child to Play Ukulele will find these arrangements perfectly calibrated to their skill level. This songbook extends their lessons with motivating repertoire that connects practice directly to seasonal celebration.

How to get the most out of it

  • Play along with the online audio to lock in tempo and hear how each part fits within the full arrangement.
  • Start at a slower playback speed if the recorded tempo feels too brisk, then gradually increase speed as confidence builds.
  • Sing or hum the melody while playing chords to internalize the relationship between harmony and the tune.

How to use it

Reserve these songs for December lessons and holiday recitals where students can perform individually or together. The page references embedded throughout make it simple to introduce each song exactly when students reach the corresponding skill level in their method books.

Skills your students will build

  • Playing melodies and chord accompaniments simultaneously
  • Reading chord symbols and integrating them with standard notation
  • Matching rhythm and tempo to a recorded performance
  • Building confidence through familiar, seasonally relevant repertoire
