We created this original 12 Days of Christmas Song to bring holiday smiles to children everywhere. We are grateful you have been part of our growth or have been referred to us. This page shares as info and FAQ for creating a music video – virtual and successful.
Together, we can do it!!
In April, at the onset of Covid-19, we had the vision to bring 19 kids and adults together to create the music video – THE THING I DO. It was challenging, it was back and forth communication and we learned a lot and we created a fun and successful music video with every day people. They were not professionals. And this is what we did. Imagine what we can do with talent, fun and communication?!
Description for Project – Operation 12 Days of Christmas
- We are looking for a combination of children (contributor) (ages 6-18) boys and girls to a) sing a verse from the 12 Days of Christmas Song and also b) record video (in proper format for re-use by our film team) of said child(ren) singing the song. Recording a creative video piece is encouraged!
- Each child will sing a verse from the song as well as sing collaborative lyrics in the song to be seen together in the music video. (Similar to The Thing I Do music video on YouTube listed above).
- Sing it a) A cappella and also b) with the instrumental music audio file we will provide and c) videotaping your best singing with your verse (for the music video)
- Use headphones when singing and recording.
- Unicorn Jazz in care of Happy & Fun Lifestyle, LLC will donate 100% of all profits to Children’s Hospital of Orange County.
- Goals:
- To create a final beautifully made a) music video showcasing the 12 Days of Christmas Song

- Awareness. To bring awareness and showcase all the kid talent via social media, blog story (we will write a final blog story about the children who are part of this music video)
- Unicorn Jazz will deliver social media graphic posts to each contributor for their own social outreach.
We will deliver music sheets to children/parents upon acceptance of the project.
We will appreciate getting as many children/parents on one joint Zoom meeting call to discuss particulars, creatives and ideas for final delivery. (We did this with The Thing I Do music video).
Deadline for sending in video and song elements is on or before November 3, 2020 at 5p PST. The sooner the better, as timing is of the essence to put together this magical song!

12 Days of Christmas – Trezekke Silly Style
Written by Lisa Caprelli
Created to connect kids of all ages and adults for Christmas Spirit, Happiness and Fun!
On the first day of Christmas
Write a cool haiku
Sing a carol, a classic
Your friends will join you …
On the 2nd Day of Christmas
Jump it’s for play
Hop to the beat
Move those hips – shout: ¡Olé!
On the 3rd Day of Christmas
As you wander in the snow
Bee Happy
Bee Silly
With Your Tongue – catch some snow!
On the 4th day of Christmas
Write a letter in a pun
Say, you’re happy:
“Write back!”
Put it in the mail AND RUN!
On the 5th Day of Christmas
Play a Game with Family!
Guess The Thing
Grab a clue
You can win Happily
On the 6th Day of Christmas
Make a house of Gingerbread!
Add Crayons
And Gummy bears in
Orange, Green and RED
On the 7th Day of Christmas
Make a masterpiece that shines
Be Creative – It’s worth it
Have fun
And make it RHYME!
On the 8th Day of Christmas
Close your eyes – imagine New
Reflect on the vision
Believe! It can be You!
On the 9th Day of Christmas
Who needs a HUG?
Hold merrily…
Don’t tell you’ve got a bug!
On the 10th Day of Christmas
Bundle up! Because It’s time!
As you’re sharing the moment
Shout out:
Here is my slime!
On the 11th Day of Christmas
Find a choir to clap & cheer!
Put pajamas on..
Leave cookies
Santa’s reindeer are near!
On the 12th days of Christmas
Eat a meal with candlelight
Tell jokes
Play songs
Enjoy all through the night!
