Just to clarify, the YouTube Video and song lyrics are free, but I see the download unfortunately costs $1.98.

Hey everyone!

 

Well known musical performer Steve Blunt has re-recorded Ellen Allard's (of Peter & Ellen Allard fame) song, Building a Better World (with permission of course). He's happy to provide it for everyone using the theme this summer, so I am passing on the good word!  

 

You can download the song FREE to use with your summer reading program here: https://www.songsforteaching.com/index.php?p=catalog&mode=search&search_in=all&search_str=steve+blunt&x=0&y=0   This is just a pretty cool site in general, btw.

 

You can watch a fun video of it with Steve, the band, and with kindergarten kids and learn the sign language here:
