Release of the new Get Happier Music Album, ‘Songs for Travelling on the Open Roads.’

This captivating set of seven singalong songs is a key part of teaching the mindsets and skills for the well-being of children in the Get Happier School program. However, any teacher or parent will find these songs incredibly valuable both in the classroom and at home.

Songs for Travelling on the Open Roads

Composed and produced by our talented music director, Kim Burns, this fabulous product includes a colourful songbook with music notation, words, chords, PowerPoints and MP3s. As a bonus and to support inclusiveness, you will receive an additional high-quality music and word video for each song. In the video, Kim uses key word hand signs that can be easily used by children in any setting.

If you wish, you can easily use your ukulele or guitar to play the songs yourself using the straightforward chord patterns provided. With this delightful musical offering, you will significantly enhance the emotional intelligence of your children at home and school. It is specially designed to support the Get Happier curriculum that you are teaching, providing a solid foundation for emotional well-being. At the same time, you will help develop a positive, relational, and cooperative learning environment.
