This rocking and rolling Halloween song will get you singing, dancing and doing the actions! Perfect for schools! Nothing scary here. Just some cool witches ready to turn you into a frog, or a bat or a worm. Watch out! Here are the words so get singing. I wish I was a witch. I wish I was a witch. With a big tall hat and a cute black cat. And a big broomstick. I wish I was a witch. One swish of my cloak is gonna make you croak. When I wave my wand you’ll be in my pond. When I tap on a log you’ll turn into a frog. I wish I was a witch … We got spells and potions. We’ve got two-for-one promotions. We got a cauldron too to make a thick green stew And when you drink some of that you’ll turn into a bat We got a bad reputation, but witches are a wonderful creation. Sisters gotta stick together. If men laugh we say ‘whatever’ I’m gonna make you squirm. Turn you into a worm. I wish I was a witch. I wish I was a witch. I wish I was a witch.

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 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’).

‘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.
