Finland : "If children could decide"

Here is this year's entry from Finland! The song is about the sad fact that the adults often cause fights and wars. If children could decide, there wouldn't be any of those sad things, but everyone could be happy and see the Sun! We hope you will enjoy the video!

Thank you Sari, and the team from Mäntsälä in Finland for this lovely song, which has such an important message! You have wonderful happy-looking pupils, who have clearly enjoyed being part of the Schoolovision experience!
It's always great to see other countries' classes and school playgrounds in these videos, and I enjoyed seeing your school very much!
Onnea Skotlannista!

Thank you everyone! We don't have a good camera at school and I edited this with MovieMaker. Sure could be easier with better tools! But the kids enjoyed themselves very much! What a great project!

Don't worry about the equipment.
You did a brilliant job!

Hi Finland,

I liked the song and video very much! I especially liked the Finnish subtitles. Now our children can learn some Finnish in the most pleasant way; by singing along with this catchy tune!

Thanks for sharing it with us and good luck on the voting!

Kind regards,

Dave

Hello dear friends from Finland,
I love the lyrics of your song. It’s so meaningful. Lovely singing too.
I also believe in children’s power. We must listen to them and learn from them.
Good luck from Canary Islands, Spain.
