So, why not open up your Spotify and start adding these kids party songs everybody will love? (Don’t worry, we won’t suggest Let It Go or Despacito.)

Kids party songs everybody will love from pop charts

What is the most popular children's song?

If you want to mix in more traditional kids party songs with your pop hits, according to Straw Poll, Baby Shark is still dominating. But Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star is a perennial favourite and has topped charts and lists for decades. (So, our vote is for the more classic lullaby.) Other popular children's songs that we didn't include in the list above are from Disney movies like Moana with the catchy “Shiny”, “You’re Welcome” and the ballad ‘How Far I’ll Go”. Or you could also mix in Encanto’s “We Don't Talk About Bruno” by Lin-Manuel Miranda, another party pleaser.

Don’t have the time to make a kids party playlist?

That’s fair... party planning is stressful and time-consuming. If you don’t have time to make a kids party playlist, you could hire a children’s DJ or musician from our directory of children's party suppliers in the UK, stream a child-friendly station or plan musical games. Fun activities like pass the parcel, karaoke, limbo, freeze or musical chairs could also inject a bit of levity and song. Then, the rest of the time, you can just have some acoustic music playing instead.
