Calm and Peaceful Christmas Song

Christmas is coming! This holiday is always a special time of peaceful family atmosphere and romantic feelings. Our new song about Christmas will make you feel warmer during these winter days. 

The lyrics of the song were written by my husband some 10 years ago when he was a student. And today we decided to turn his little Christmas poem into a song that I believe will appeal to both kids and adults. The song sounds as calm as a lullaby so I hope children are going to like it. And grown-ups will certainly love the message of the song calling for peace in the world.  


The Christmas song lyrics:

Snow is falling from the sky,
Turning round like in the dance,
Landing on the nose of mine,
Melting on the skin at once.

It’s a lovely Christmas tree
Whitened with some fluffy snow.
I just have a little dream
To take this beauty to my home.

Everyone will jump with joy,
Singing around the big green tree,
And I’ll give you a Christmas toy
If you give a kiss to me.

You and me will dance all night
Cheek to cheek, and hand in hand.
Hearts are warm and eyes are bright,
Let this party have no end.

Christmas is a real dream
Santa visits our place,
Brings us presents and ice-cream,
Smiles shine on every face.

Let the people of the world
Stop the wars and any fight,
Thank the Virgin and the Lord,
In the way we do tonight.

Peace and love will come to Earth
That’s for what we all should pray,
In the day of Jesus’ birth
War and hatred stay away.

Arctic Animals Song for Children

Winter is the most wonderful season, especially when you are a child. I think all children look forward to the winter coming so that they can play in the snowy fairytale. Many kids even dream of the fascinating trip to the North country covered with deep snow to see Santa Clause, reindeer and elves on the Christmas Eve.

When the holidays are over we can continue exploring this marvelous land with deep snowdrifts, huge icebergs in the frozen sea and the magic shining of Northern Lights. Children can also learn what animals live there and how they can survive in the environmental conditions which seem to be harsh for human beings.


All these things you can find in my song “Far away in the Arctic” which will help your children to discover this fantastic land.

Far away in the Arctic


Here are the song lyrics


Every time winter comes
And days are getting short
I remember the Arctic land
Somewhere in the North
At the pole it’s freezing cold
There’re neither flowers nor trees
Only icebergs made of ice and snow
Floating in the sea.

Refrain:
Far away in the Arctic
On the top of the world
Miles and miles of frozen sea
The wind is bitter cold.
Far away in the Arctic
Northern Lights
Shining brightly in the sky
All through the night.


This remote icy land
Is the home for noisy seals,
Reindeer and walruses
With tusks and chubby cheeks,
Small and hardy arctic foxes
With the warmest coat,
Strong and bold polar bears,
The rulers of the North.

Refrain:
Far away in the Arctic
On the top of the world
Miles and miles of frozen sea
The wind is bitter cold.
Far away in the Arctic
Northern Lights
Shining brightly in the sky
All through the night.

Arctic Animals Worksheets


To practice the Arctic vocabulary I would like to offer you the Arctic Animals Adventure Pack of worksheets and activities which was specially designed for young learners of English as a second language to help them penetrate deeply into the language while exploring the far away land in the North. The assignments are based on the lyrics of the Arctic Animals Song, but you can use them in any discussion about winter and the Arctic. You can download the preview here.

The educational pack includes a variety of worksheets for different levels of language proficiency. Using these worksheets, children will have the opportunity:

  • to practice in spelling and writing;
  • to develop the skills of scanning the English text to find the necessary information;
  • to learn the English sentences building rules;
  • to develop the ability of creating their own expressions in English based on their thoughts and ideas.







There are also flashcards, coloring pages and interesting games you can find in the pack. Please contact me if you would like to purchase this pack as well as the mp3 of the Arctic Animals song (including the version without vocal).

Also, I would like to share some free Arctic animals worksheets from the above mentioned educational pack.

For preschool children there are some coloring pages where they can color the North animals as well as their names that will help them to remember the spelling. There is a polar bear, a seal, an arctic fox, a walrus and, of course, a reindeer.

Winter time has come,
Let’s go and have some fun,
In the snow we can play
The whole frosty day.

We can ski, we can play with snowballs,
In the snow we can skate,
We can run, we can ride a snowboard.
Winter time has come!
We are ready for some fun!
