Social-emotional learning

Feelings, Feelings, We Have Them All

A gentle song that helps children recognize when they feel happy, sad, mad, or scared, using everyday moments like a broken toy or a noise in the dark. Kids learn simple ways to cope, like taking deep breaths and counting to four, and that feelings come and go like the weather.

When the sun shines bright
And I laugh all day
My heart feels light in a happy way
I smile so big, I dance and play
The feeling is happy, hooray, hooray!

Feelings, feelings, we have them all
Sometimes they're big and sometimes they're small
Happy, sad, mad, and scared
Let's learn together, we're prepared!

When my toy breaks down
Or my friend goes away
I feel a little different in a sad kind of way
My eyes get teary, my smile goes small
It's okay to feel sad, it happens to us all!

Feelings, feelings, we have them all
Sometimes they're big and sometimes they're small
Happy, sad, mad, and scared
Let's learn together, we're prepared!

Sometimes I feel like a volcano inside
My face gets red
And I want to hide
But taking deep breaths and counting to four
It makes me feel calm, not mad anymore!
One, two, three, four
Better!

Feelings, feelings, we have them all
Sometimes they're big and sometimes they're small
Happy, sad, mad, and scared
Let's learn together, we're prepared!

If I hear a noise in the dark at night
I might feel scared, holding my pillow tight
But then I remember, I'm safe and sound
Fear is in my mind, it can't hold me down!

Feelings, feelings, we have them all
Sometimes they're big and sometimes they're small
Happy, sad, mad, and scared
Let's learn together, we're prepared!

Feelings change like the weather, and that's okay!
They come and go throughout the day
Let's feel the feeling and let it go
No need to grasp, let feelings flow!

Feelings, feelings, we have them all
Sometimes they're big and sometimes they're small
Happy, sad, mad, and scared
Let's learn together, we're prepared!

Feelings, feelings, we have them all
