September is a great time to introduce new classroom traditions, and we all need music to motivate us. See if children can get the room all cleaned up by the time this song is over! 

NOTE: Don’t forget to check past September Songs of the Month for more songs that work for the start of the school year.

Clean Up Song

CHORUS

Clean up, clean up, everybody clean up

Pickin’ up the room as fast as we can

Clean up, clean up, everybody clean up

Working together is a mighty fine plan

1. Pieces in the puzzles and books on the shelf

And I can put away the blocks myself

Put a way the cars and the toy trucks too

We’ll sing a little song and soon we’re through

CHORUS

2. Bins and boxes and tubs and cubbies

And drawers and hooks and shelves

Everything has a little place to be

So we can clean it up all by ourselves

CHORUS
(Instrumental chorus for extra cleaning time!)

3. Take a look around, is there something on the ground

That needs to be put away

If you see it pick it up and put it where it goes

So we know where to find it on another day

CHORUS
