Fun song and video to help children learn about the things that can be recycled or reused. Watch it in class as a fun interlude or as part of a project. I would suggest that most children of 12 or under would enjoy this. Contains clips from a number of recycling videos currently on YouTube including the Peppa Pig episode. I did some research as to what can actually be recycled. Some were surprising. There are also some funny ones in there (‘tunes and notes … daddy’s old jokes’). Look out for a guest appearance by Prof. Brian Cox!

‘Say “Hello”’ is a fast poppy song packed with positive messages. It’s a 90 second blast of pure melodic energy. Use is as a lesson starter to get attention and boost the energy level of your classroom. Use it as your walk-on music. Boxers and pop stars have walk-on music. Why not teachers? It’s got simple words and lots of repetition that makes it easy for children to learn and sing along. It’s also got a cool lyrics and graphics video on YouTube that will help with literacy. The second verse is uplifting: ‘Open your eyes and see the colours. Open your heart and let love flow. Open your arms and throw them around the world, and say hello, hello, hello’, etc.

‘Home Again (Refugee Song)’ was written in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and to the news reports about millions of people escaping to other countries. The song is sung by a mother to her child. In just a few words, ‘Home Again’ asks the question – how can you return home when your home either does not exist anymore or is just a temporary stay in a new country? The music is soothing. The gently pulsing rhythm is calming and meditative. My hope is that you will find this song a useful way to raise the topic of population displacement with children. If you work with refugee children, I hope it will help them understand that, whatever they might have been through, there is always a possibility to build a new home in a new place. The song has three main chords and can easily be transcribed to suit your children’s voices.

A rock’n’soul, riff-tastic, body-movin’, mind-expandin’ song that draws on one of Ken Robinson’s big themes - IMAGINATION! Warning: This song contains useful information designed to fire the imagination of children. As the great Ken Robinson told us, imagination is the key to creativity which is the key to creating new ways of living and of being. This song gets kids to think big about who they might want to be and how they might want to live. Powerful stuff! And, guess what? The song is full of imaginative images that were sent to me by the fans of my band, Johnny and the Raindrops. I just linked them all together with some cool music. There is also an eye-popping video that shows you (and the children) all of the things that were imagined. Search ‘Imagination’ on the Johnny and the Raindrops’ YouTube channel. Enjoy!

This is a song to encourage children to be themselves, to be assertive, to be proud and independent, and find their OWN way in the world. Yes - we all get help from family, teachers and other people in our lives, but this song is all about YOU - your voice, your journey - your SELF! Sing along: ‘Be yourself. Be proud. Sing YOUR song. Sing it LOUD! … There’s a story deep inside that only you can tell’. The music is up-tempo Irish folk, like the Pogues or the Dubliners!
