Summary/Abstract: Music is a universal language and the world of childhood and musical sounds are in a permanent symbiosis. Children always sing, at playgrounds, when they are happy, when they want to express an idea. A way of externalizing their feelings is, most of the time, vocal singing. The present paper wants to reinforce this idea but also presents some principles of music education systems, established worldwide, regarding the use of children's folklore for the formation of children's musical skills. In addition, the presentation of traditional songs for children, from different corners of the world, highlights the fact that the language barrier can be invisible in the children's world, thanks to a strong dimension existing in the song, namely, music.
