Line 7:
'''It's a Small World''' was a water-based boat ride. It is an Old Mill-type attraction. It originated from April 22, 1964 to October 17, 1965 at the 1964 New York World's Fair as a salute to the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF; formerly the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund) and later reopened at Disneyland on May 28, 1966. Its working title was "Children of the World."
 
Its musical component was a song, entitled "It's a Small World (After All)"; this song was written by the Sherman brothers and published by the BMI-affiliated music publisher Wonderland Music Company, Inc. (BMI) in October 1963.
 
Several renditions of the song exist, particularly those used on musical toys. A cover rendition of the song that was performed by The Disneyland Children's Sing-Along Chorus appeared on the album, "Disney's Children's Favorites Vol. 4" (1990). That rendition has since been used on coin-operated kiddie ride soundboards manufactured by various companies, particularly Taiwanese-based Eletech Enterprise Co., Ltd. Besides that, the original rendition of the song was used on some units of the Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck rides, manufactured by Merkur Kids (formerly Elektro-Mobiltechnik GmbH).
