Who doesn’t love the characters of Sesame Street? It’s one of the kids’ favourite shows and this song is a fantastic way to get kids acquainted with basic alphabets.

Song Lyrics
Good morning,
Mister Sun,
Welcome to the sky-
Shine on all the
Little creatures
As you’re passing by.
Stop yawning,
Mister Sun,
Time to make a day.
Brightening every
Little corner
As you go your way.
The moon and stars are
Fine at night.
But when it’s day,
We need your light
So, we say, “Keep shining,
Mister Sun,
Smiling in the blue.”
You’ll see all the
Little children,
Smiling back at you.
And birds and bees,
The flowers, the trees,
The whole wide world
Will seem to say,
“Good Morning,
Good Morning,”
Mister Sun.
Good Morning,
Have a nice day.
