about

Purim Time Is Here – words and music by Joanie Calem
For this song, the children have noisemakers or shakers. They
have to wait to hear which Purim character you put into the song,
and then either yell “Boo” and shake their shaker for Haman, or
yell “Yay” for Esther or Mordechai. You can obviously put other
Purim characters into the mix if you choose!

lyrics

Hey everybody listen up, Purim time is here.
At Purim time things get mixed up, a crazy time of the year.
When we hear the name Haman, then we all yell “Boo!”…(3x)
’Cause Purim time is here (repeat and fade)

Hey everybody listen up, Purim time is here.
At Purim time things get mixed up, a crazy time of the year.
When we hear the name Esther, we all yell “Yay!”… (3x)
’Cause Purim time is here (repeat and fade)

Hey everybody listen up, Purim time is here.
At Purim time things get mixed up, a crazy time of the year.

When we hear the name Esther, we all yell “Yay!”…
’Cause Purim time is here (repeat and fade)
(mix up any way that you want!)
