The month of Adar is starting today, And that means that Purim is on its way. There is much to do, much to prepare, To decide which Purim costume to wear.

In nursery school, you can hear us say, "Who will be Queen Esther on Purim day?"

The first thing to do is start-having fun, The best thing is - we include every one. We come dressed in pyjamas, not in clothes,

Have fun with a clown with a funny red nose.

And now while laughing you can hear us say, "Who will be Queen Esther on Purim day?"

Next we all build a palace together, Where we learn the Megillah of Esther.

We play being messengers,

Queen and king,

Parade in costumes and merrily sing.

We are all kings and queens but please do say, Who will be Queen Esther on Purim day?

All day in our store we have lots of fun, Making Purim items for every one. Would you like a mask?

A balloon with feet?

A funny clown hat?

Or a Purim treat?

Anything you want – except we can't say, Who will be Queen Esther on Purim day.

Tomorrow will be our Purim day, We're very busy, there's no time to play. There's Megillat Esther for every one, And rattles to shake when hearing "Haman".

Soon we will all know and then we can say, Who will be Queen Esther on Purim day.

Finally it's here, it's now Purim day, We're all in costume, so happy and gay. Here come animals,

A butterfly too,

And a policeman who’s dressed all in blue.

So many pretty girls, now who can say, Who will be Queen Esther on Purim day.

In the palace there's Megillah to hear,

Parcels of food for our soldiers so dear.

What fun to give gifts to friends – and to get,

But Tzdakkah for the poor we must not forget.

The king will now choose a queen and will say, Who will be Queen Esther on Purim day.

Girls gather round, the excitement is great, We all hold our breath. We hardly can wait. The king is careful, he must not choose wrong. Soon we will all know. We burst into song.

He raises his scepter, we all hear him say: "LIRAN is Queen Esther on Purim day!”

To a Purim feast, the king invites all, Each one in the class, from biggest to small.

We all eat and drink, and merrily sing,

In honor of our pretty queen and king.

next The children look at each other and say: Who will be Queen Esther Purim day?

PURIM SAMEACH!
