Communication is a big goal area during our Music Connections groups!! Not only choosing a song but talking about the seasons, the weather, the things we might see or experience outside of our group through related music choices. That’s why our song choices were in categories this spring! Sun, rainbows, rain, flowers and birds! Also, for friends using their iPads, they can pick a category first and then a song from there, increasing opportunities for reciprocal communication!

Happy Earth Day 2026! This long time Raffi super fan has this song on the brain today!

Big Beautiful Planet

There's a big beautiful planet in the sky
It's my home, it's where I live
You and many others live here too
The earth is our home it's where we live

We can feel the power of the noon day sun
A blazing ball of fire up above
Shining light and warmth enough for everyone
A gift to every nation from a star

There's a big beautiful planet in the sky
It's my home, it's where I live
You and many others live here too
The earth is our home, it's where we live

We can feel the spirit of the blowing wind
A mighty source of power in our lives
Offering another way to fill our needs
Nature's gift can help us carry on

There's a big beautiful planet in the sky
It's my home, it's where I live
You and many others live here too
The earth is our home, it's where we live
