The Olympics and Paralympics are both thought-provoking and great for inspiration. I’ve loved focusing on the Olympic and Paralympic values for character education. I shared songs about the core Olympic values of respect, excellence, and friendship. Recently, I focused on the Paralympic values. I already shared songs about the Paralympic values of determination and equality. Today, I’m focusing on the Paralympic value of inspiration. I’ll be sharing lots of free inspirational songs that are wonderful for character education for a variety of ages (even adults)!

Even though these are inspired by the Olympics and Paralympics, I won’t just share songs about role models for inspiration. I’ll be sharing inspirational and motivational songs of all kinds. Of course, it’s impossible to share every great inspirational song here, but you’ll find a lot!

Note: You’ll find inspirational athlete stories in my “Ultimate Guide to Olympic Values.”
