Children’s Week Song Lyrics
It’s my favourite time of the year
Children’s Week is here
Girls and boys come out to play for Universal children’s day.
Bring a friend and come along
There’s fun for everyone
Lots to see and things to do in celebration of you.
So wave your arms in the air, clap them way up there
Everybody celebrate Children’s Week
Dancing to the beat
Children’s Week
All across the nation
From the city to the outback station
Children have a voice, it’s their right not just a choice
We all have a right to be safe
We all have a right to be free
A right to shelter, a right to food, to be part of society
So wave your arms in the air, clap them way up there
Everybody celebrate Children’s Week
Dancing to the beat
Children’s Week
Mommas and poppas too,
Remember the child in you
Take time to play every day, share the things that we do
Be there to allay our fears
Encourage us to give our all
Scream for your team when we succeed and catch us when we fall
So wave your arms in the air, clap them way up there
Everybody celebrate Children’s Week
Dancing to the beat
Children’s Week
Let’s celebrate the Silver Jubilee
Of the United Nations decree
Of the Charter for the Rights of the Child, signed as part of our history
Governments must unite
Let children have their say
To make a difference in the ways of the world, tomorrows leaders here today
So wave your arms in the air, clap them way up there
Everybody celebrate Children’s Week
Dancing to the beat
Children’s Week
Children’s Week
It’s Children’s Week!
