Small Things Add Up
A song about compound effects - how small actions repeated over time create big results
One penny in my piggy bank today, Doesn't seem like very much, okay, But tomorrow I'll add another one, And the next day too, it's kind of fun!
Little by little, day by day, Small things grow in a mighty way! Little by little, stack them high, Watch them reach up to the sky!
One week later, I have seven cents, That's not much for money spent, But I keep adding, never quit, Penny by penny, bit by bit!
By the end of one whole year, Three hundred sixty-five pennies here! That's three dollars and sixty-five! Small things add up, watch them thrive!
Sophia reads five pages every night, At first the stack looks tiny — slight, "Just five pages? That's so small!" But wait — and see the stack stand tall!
Little by little, day by day, Small things grow in a mighty way! Little by little, stack them high, Watch them reach up to the sky!
Tiny things stack into mountains tall — Great big things start out small! Every giant tree you see, Started as a tiny seed!
Little by little (every day!), Day by day (in every way!), Small things grow in a mighty way! Little by little, stack them high, Watch them reach up to the sky!
