Sing a Song for Simpsons
Exclusive KT Tunstall supports SSCB!
We’ll really miss our annual Teddy Bears’ Picnic this year. It's usually a chance for us to get together with our supporters, sing songs, have fun and raise money for the neonatal unit. But because that's not possible, we’re asking your children to help us create a musical adventure from home instead!
Like all small charities in the UK, we've been hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. We would love it if your family would Sing a Song for Simpsons to share joy at this tough time and help raise much needed funds for the neonatal unit.
If you enjoy KT’s version of Teddy Bear's Picnic as much as we do and would like to provide a donation to the work of Simpsons Special Care Babies, we would love your support.

Record a song! It may be one song, or you may want to sing one a day for a week or two. Share the video with your family & friends on your social media accounts or through a messaging service, if you prefer #singasongforsimpsons.
-
Ask your family and friends to sponsor you and your children with this challenge.
We hope you’ll join us in Sing a Song for Simpsons to support SSCB. The funds raised will support a number of important projects such as funding the family facilities and vCreate, a new secure video and messaging system to keep families connected with their baby in the unit during this difficult time.
Many thanks in advance,
SSCB
If you know the words, why not start with singing Teddy Bear's picnic?
Teddy Bear's Picnic
Anne Murray
If you go down in the woods today
You're sure of a big surprise
If you go down in the woods today
You'd better go in disguise!
For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain
Because today's the day the
Teddy Bears have their picnic
Picnic time for Teddy Bears
The little Teddy Bears are having
A lovely time today
Watch them, catch them unawares
And see them picnic on their holiday
See them gaily gad about
They love to play and shout
They never have any cares
At six o'clock their Mommies and Daddies
Will take them home to bed
Because they're tired little Teddy Bears
Every Teddy Bear who's been good
Is sure of a treat today
There's lots of marvellous things to eat
And wonderful games to play
Beneath the trees where nobody sees
They'll hide and seek as long as they please
'Cause that's the way the
Teddy Bears have their picnic
Picnic time for Teddy Bears
The little Teddy Bears are having
A lovely time today
Watch them, catch them unawares
And see them picnic on their holiday
See them gaily gad about
They love to play and shout
They never have any cares
At six o'clock their Mommies and Daddies
Will take them home to bed
Because they're tired little Teddy Bears
Because they're tired little Teddy Bears
