8. Kiss the Girl, The Little Mermaid – Ashely Tisdale
Of course, you can’t go wrong with a song from Disney’s “The Little Mermaid.” I know what you may be thinking- sure it’s a song in a mermaid movie, but isn’t it a little slow for kids to dance to? That’s why I’ve included a link to the Pop version of Kiss The Girl, sung by Ashely Tisdale. This upbeat version has hints of pop and punk, serving as a perfect mermaid dance song! While the lyrics don’t directly relate to mermaids, it is a widely recognized song from “The Little Mermaid” movie.

- Kids will sing their hearts out to this popular Moana song! Auli’i Cravalho’s character Moana sings about longing to explore the open seas.
6. Do the Mermaid, Barbie in a Mermaid Tale 2 – Barbie
Grab your nose & snorkel down! This song from “Barbie in a Mermaid Tale 2” is an excellent dance song. The pop beat of Do the Mermaid is sure to get all the pretty mermaid girls dancing all around! You can even watch the dance video to learn how to ‘Do the Mermaid.’ The moves are super easy and repetitive, so kids can quickly pick up on them and join the party wave!
5. Mermaid High, Mermaid High – Claire Rosinkranz
- This newer bop sung by Claire Rosinkranz for the kids show, “Mermaid High,” tells about 4 mermaid girls who venture to land and secretly attend a human high school! There are a lot of mermaid puns written into the lyrics which makes the song extra fun to listen to!

Ordinary Girl from “H2O Just Add Water” is another song perfectly fit for a mermaid party. The song’s fun and upbeat lyrics tell about magic mermaid powers and life in the blue underworld! It’s all about living in the ocean, Being wild and free. So bring all the magic and fun at sea to your next mermaid party with this great song!
