This song is inspired by the text of Psalm 92: “It is good to give thanks to G-d and sing praises.

Consider (and invite your kids and/or community to join you) all the things, people, and places in their lives that make them happy. When we feel thankful for what makes us happy, that is called being “grateful.”

Cultivating gratitude is good for the heart, mind, and soul of every kid (and grownup).

Teach the your children or students the chorus of the song “Grateful”:  “I’m so full of thank yous, I feel great, I feel great, I feel grateful,” and incorporate the practice of “looking for thank yous (or phrase it “counting our blessings”) when students need cheering up.

In this tune, each singer can take a turn completing a line. When you sing it in your community, add lines to the pre-chorus so that more people can participate in suggesting reasons to say thank you. This tunes lends itself easily to presentations
