//**"If you're happy and you know it clap your hands!"**//

 I think that being able to sing makes a person happier in whole. When we sung a simple silly song like this it made everyone laugh and smile. I think if you want to feel happy if you can just clear your head and do something goofy once in a while then it gets each person into a happy mood. The sung was made to show how fun it can be to be happy and that by just clapping it puts people into a better moods. At a very early age it is important to have fun and laugh and for a little kid it is clapping your hands and stomping you feet was fun. For kinds our age its a little bit childish but once in a while I think it can take everybody back in years and remember what it was like to be a little kids where you didn't have to worry about all the things we stress about today. ~ Alicia Siddons



 I think it means that to be happy no matter how sad you are. If you are happy than you dance around or do what ever you want. So don’t waist you time just sitting there do something there is no point just sitting there and doing nothing. Fill yourself with joy and happiness not sadness. Never lose faith in yourself. Istvan Meszes

   I think that this quote means that you should show that your happy and not hide it. This song is probably the first song that kids learn when they go to school in English. Its also a song that you could pick lyrics from and you could be yourself when you sing your lyrics which make you be yourself. Its a song that has been a tradition and brings happiness to where you are. And it is easy to remember. Also when you feel down you could sing it to yourself and maybe it will make you feel happier and will make you go from a bad mood to a good one. Maybe this song is remembered because many kids think that this song is amazing or wonderful. ~ Michael J. Kay

 Mr.Stein wanted us to get happy and laugh. Many students around the world sing it because teachers, parents adults want to make each other happier and make other people happy too. This song represents happiness and hummer. It makes everyone more comfortable and made people less sad . Marwin Leidewall

  //I thin// k that this quote means that if you are happy then you should show it in some kind of way. We did this activity because it is such a cheerful activity and it made us laugh and have fun. It also shows how even teens can have fun with a childish song. Its taught to children at a young age because it expands their imagination.Mati Wilder****
