about

Making mistakes is an important part of learning for kids and everyone. Let's encourage our kids to not be afraid of making mistakes and then to be resilient and learn from those mistakes.

lyrics

Chorus
I have an idea in my brain
If it doesn’t work, I’ll try it again
Write it down with paper and pen
If it doesn’t work, I’ll try it again
Don’t give up don’t stop and cry
Well come on, let’s try, try, try
Don’t give up don’t stop and cry
Well come on, let’s try, try, try

This year I started playing piano
So much fun to play and sing
Don’t always love to practice don’t you know
The work is paying off, it feels amazing
My favourite thing with music is writing my own songs
Like the ones I’m singing today
Create a melody, find the words to go along
Then rewrite, sing and play

Chorus

At school we’re learning to multiply
And you know I’m trying my best
My teacher shows us how and why
But I’m still making slow progress
First I guess, then I solve, oh yes I try
After that it’s time to assess
Before you know it, it starts to demystify
And I’m having math success.

Making mistakes isn’t always bad
Those mistakes can be your launching pad

Chorus
