Tidy Up Time

Use song - Tidy up Time – Kids Music Company – Echo Fred

THIS is by far the greatest song in the History of Time for Children – I use it every week and it alerts the children to the changing of the guard– ie. We are no longer playing; we are tidying up – it is pure brilliance. 

I am so grateful for this song!  I play a game with the children where I say that all the toys must be in the correct boxes and sorted by the end of the song! Always up for a challenge and a race this speeds this part up, of course with lots of help from the adult helpers. 

Remember in times of chaos things go wrong and things get missed, having an organised Tidy up Time, will help get the toys away and the children feel like they have achieved something great.
