there are quite many childrens armenian songs...
Arev arev, yek yek , is one very famous in wich i remember..
I belive that we have a very great amount of children songs written....
Not only by adults...but little children writing them...I have a few published in soviet armenia.

"dahukner", "... kanach, kanach batsatum, vazvzum em, trchkotum..." (the name? something about "napastak"), "jan im gndak, im gndak", "pison, pison mlavan, Tavriz@ toghets, paxav Van" (), etc...

Ames, "pisiki gangat@" is a poem by Hovhannes Tumanian, and I'm not so sure how mankakan it is...

Guess that was one of the songs that the teachers converted into songs like Harut said. My teacher used to sing it to us all the time. Ahhhh, the good old days

Mknik, mknik, char mknik
Kerar panirn u hatsik
Kerar shaqarn el aghvor
Eghar shat, shat hantsavor.
Pakhir, pakhir du mknik,
Inch ketser es, al heriq,
Hima k'uga mer pisik
Qez k'ane pzzik, pzzik.
======
Arev, arev ekur,
Eres@d mez tsuyts dur,
Sev amper@ heranan
U mezi el janpa tan.

Who remembers the rest of this ditty?
I guess this is how Ter Totik taught the Ayb Ben Gim.
Ayb@ ereq matik uni,
Ben@ kakhvats tatik uni,
Gim@ dziu sandzi pes e
Da-n ktrvats tandzi pes e...

Porik@s anoti mnats,
Ertam nayim patuhanen
Anushik hayrik@s ur mnats.
===
Jim, jim matnotsik
Sev aqlor@ mortetsinq,
Yeghov meghrov patetsinq,
Tonirin tak@ pahetsinq.
The above are not really songs in the strictest sense even though many mothers will make up tunes and sing them.
These are rather show and tell, acting rhymes. Specially the first one where the cupped hands are held up and rotated as if rotating a ball, the child will imitate. When saying porik@s the hand is rubbed aginst the stomach in a rotating manner, when saying nayim the hands are held over the eye as if peeking, and when saying ur the hand once again is rotated in a questioning motion. Is that where the Armenian question mark takes its shape?
The second is also a game where the hands are placed down with the palms down and the fingers spread, and while saying jim jim the fingers are pinched (jimjik). The ditty goes furhter where the rooster is revived and flies away PRRR, and the hands are spread out imitating flight.
