Sí! Me encanta la canción.

And ... in my classroom, I would never say "Put your stuff away." Although it may technically be correct, as the teacher, it is way tooooo casual to use the word "stuff". I would always say "Put your things away" or "Put everything away", etc.

I guess it depends on the class and which material is being taught or put away..

Just kidding Lou Ann, you are right of course it is educationally more correct, sound and responsible to say 'things' instead of 'stuff'.
