Hello, everybody, I’m so glad to see you!
I think that may be one of the most well remembered children’s songs, and one I love to use in the Pre-K. I happily welcomed these great, family friendly CD’s into the morning routine at the school. I have a few CD’s and tapes (oh yeah, old school, baby!) from Music Together classes taken in years past. Those classes were so much fun!

• A community of children and their families and teachers sharing songs, instrument play, rhythm chants, and movement activities in relaxed, playful, non-performance-oriented settings.

• Music learned through developmentally appropriate activities that support and respect the unique learning styles of very young children.

• Children participating at their own levels in mixed-age family-style classes or in preschool settings.

• Parents and caregivers contributing to the enrichment of their child’s music environment—regardless of their own musical abilities.

• A new song collection every semester for three years, featuring great arrangements of original and traditional songs in a wide variety of tonalities, meters, and cultural styles.

Music Together Family Favorites features nineteen (19) of the best-loved songs from the nine (9) Music Together song collections. This CD has won eleven awards including a Parents’ Choice Silver Honor award and includes a 32-page booklet with fun music-making activity suggestions for every song for use at home, in the car, or in the preschool classroom.

Reviews and Awards

The music, sung by real people and real voices, shows kids by example to sing out loud and just have fun with their music! With the adults in their life playing and singing with them, setting an example of just having a good time and exploring music as well as learning rhythms and beats. The music and the style encourages learn by doing, and having fun while learning. (The kids don’t even know they are learning- they just do!) The CD’s offer a wide range of music from diverse backgrounds and cultures, giving our little ones a taste of life outside their “bubble” of existence. Why not expose your kids to a little (very appropriate) culture?
There are booklets inside that can even give you some ideas of incorporating movement and play into your Music Together time.

They also now have a Songbook for Teachers- I think I may need to look into that! It is a companion songbook designed to accompany the Family Favorites CD, to assist those who work with children. Hmmm, sounds like someone I know. I should go have a look-see!
