It has to be appropriate. Aiming for a song about peace but anything appropriate will do.

  1. Let's get together by The Youngbloods...or Arlo Guthrie or Country Joe McDonald. They had a few children's songs.


  2. You may want to look for something by Peter Paul and Mary.  If I Had a Hammer comes to mind, great song!  I can invision the children hammering the air, I think that one would be cute.

      This Land is Your Land is a good one.  I think they fit the definition of hippie.  You may want to look for other folk artists of the 60's and 70's.

    Edit:

    I found the lyrics I think they fit what you are looking for:

    IF I HAD A HAMMER (The Hammer Song)

    words and music by Lee Hays and Pete Seeger

    If I had a hammer

    I'd hammer in the morning

    I'd hammer in the evening

    All over this land

    I'd hammer out danger

    I'd hammer out a warning

    I'd hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters

    All over this land

    If I had a bell

    I'd ring it in the morning

    I'd ring it in the evening

    All over this land

    I'd ring out danger

    I'd ring out a warning

    I'd ring out love between my brothers and my sisters

    All over this land

    If I had a song

    I'd sing it in the morning

    I'd sing it in the evening

    All over this land

    I'd sing out danger

    I'd sing out a warning

    I'd sing out love between my brothers and my sisters

    All over this land

    Well I've got a hammer

    And I've got a bell

    And I've got a song to sing

    All over this land

    It's the hammer of justice

    It's the bell of freedom

    It's the song about love between my brothers and my sisters

    All over this land
