Creating a pleasant classroom atmosphere is an important element in starting the learning process. In various studies, listening to songs or singing them has been shown to have a positive effect on a student's mood for participating in the learning process. However, children's songs that are relevant to be used as teaching media are very limited. This study aims to develop new songs that are suitable for thematic learning of the 2nd-grade elementary school (SD) students which also can be used as an online learning medium. The songs developed include 6 themes in the 2nd-grade curriculum. Songs were developed using the ADDIE method. The result of this study is an album containing 6 children's songs according to the 2013 Curriculum theme. The results of expert validation show that the songs have good quality in terms of song titles, song atmosphere, language style, song content, and song characteristics. Based on the test result with students, these songs can be sung easily and give a positive feeling effect.
