A great way to feel happy is to share with people you love. 

Why not teach the chorus of one of your favourite songs to somebody you love?

Then you record yourselves and you share with us. It’s kind of a challenge I’d like you to take up.

You could also do it with some songs you’ve already learnt like ‘Happy’ or ‘Don’t Worry Be Happy’.

Why don’t you try something different? For example check on this page HERE:

James Brown’s ‘I Feel Good’ 

Taylor Swift’s’ ‘Shake It Off’ 

‘Shut Up and Dance’ by Walk the Moon

‘Best Day of My Life’ by American Authors

Let’s sing this rap song to make us happy. All Stars by Smash Mouth from the film Shrek.

Now let’s practise with the lyrics HERE.

The karaoke version when you are finally ready! HERE.
