Bounce Back - the resilience song

It's hard for kids to know how to cope when things fall apart; they don't win; when friends let them down or when things don't go to plan. They need some help to get back on the horse and bounce back. Here's a song for those times. The catchy, bouncy feel will have them bopping along and bouncing back before you know it.

Have a great idea for a growth mindset song? Or want the sheet music for a class performance? Or a karaoke track perhaps?

There'll be days when things seem bad.
Life may seem unfair!
Keep your cool, do not get mad.
Breathe and don't despair .... just say

I'll bounce back!
Bounce, bounce, bounce, bouncing back.

Things won't always go to plan.
Life won't always be perfect.
Just keep on going, do the best that you can.
Keep things in perspective and say

I'll bounce back!
Bounce, bounce, bounce, bouncing back.

Take time out!
Time to reset!
Talk it through!
Don't get upset!
You can't always win, won't always feel your best.
Friends might be mean, you may not pass a test.
Take three deep breaths, calm things down.
Yes, it may not be easy but it's not a catastrophe -
Bounce back.
Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and
Bounce Back!
Bounce, bounce, bounce, bouncing back.
