Gift is one of our most popular songs of all time. It is often chosen by kids themselves to sing at graduation. One story shared with us was of a classroom full of kids who skipped recess just to keep singing this playful song. Lyrics have proven to speak to kids in a very big way. Colorful rhymes that make a lot of sense help kids re-think, relax, and re-focus.
Our appreciation song studio recording makes a PERFECT addition to any classroom playlist.
