A group of sweet kids wanted to cheer up their neighbor, Bert, whose wife had passed away after more than 50 years of marriage. They showed up at his house to sing Christmas carols, complete with Santa hats and instruments. The little Christmas Carolers’ kind gesture went viral, touching the hearts of millions.

His wife of 50+ years passed away a couple months ago. All of the kids in the neighborhood decided to try and make him smile tonight during our annual Christmas caroling,” the text on the viral TikTok reads.
The children stand outside Bert’s door singing before he answers. The sweet older man stood in awe as the kids filled his heart with Christmas cheer. He even applauded at the end. The video has more than 3.5 million views and 886,000 likes.
The surprise Christmas carolers were just what many of us needed. “Just know he was thinking ‘oh she would have LOVED this,’” someone wrote. He was probably sitting in his chair house all quiet when all of a sudden music fills the house,” another person shared. “I love Christmas.” Others understood how Bert feels and loved that the Christmas carolers showed up for him.
“As a widow, this makes me so emotional. Thank you for remembering him,” a comment reads. “The older you get, the more invisible you are. Don’t forget him.
Please,” another person added. These children did more good in 60 seconds than some people accomplish in a lifetime. They’re certainly on Santa’s nice list this year and probably next year, too. This story’s featured image can be found here.
