Default Happy Morning Music Mix (for kids)

My wife goes to work early, so I get the kids (6 & 8) up and rolling in the mornings. I like waking them up by playing happy, fun music. I started making a mix, but I can't think of many songs. No swears, upbeat, positive stuff is what I'm after. Can be English or French.

This is what I have so far:

Life's a Happy Song (Muppets)
Do You Want to Build a Snowman (Frozen)
Dynamite (Taio Cruz)
O Fortuna (Salzburg Mozrteum Orchestra)
Waka Waka (Shakira)
Daft Punk (Pentatonix)
Jump Around (House of Pain)
I Like to Move It (Madagascar)

Any other suggestions? I've been rockin' these same songs for a few months and need some new tunes to keep things interesting. I have an RDIO subscription so can literally add anything in an instant.

Hah, I appreciate that, but I should add that the song can't annoy me.

Holy crap, that's the exact kind of stuff I'm looking for. Happy has been added, thanks.

I listened to that song and wasn't really into it, but that did remind me of Home, which I have now added.

My son and daughter (3 and 6) love the Fresh Beat Band. The whole CD is upbeat and the songs are very catchy.

"Everything is Awesome" from the Lego movie is a big hit with my kids (4 & 6). Also "Roar" by Katy Perry.

I can't seem to find that on RDIO.
