Callcott published in 1836 an abridgement of his father's "Musical Grammar", in 1840 a collection of psalm and hymn tunes for Edward Bickersteth's "Christian Psalmody", and in 1843 "The Child's own Singing Book". In the latter work he was assisted by his wife Maria, who was the author of religious stories. In 1851 he published "Remarks on the Royal Albert Piano" (exhibited at the International Exhibition of that year), and in 1859 "A few Facts on the Life of Handel".
