So this morning on the way to work i was thinking about teaching music....and wondering what i'm going to do to keep from going completely insane with childrens music...surely their has to be something out their that is okay. Then it hit me....They might be giants has a childrens album....although i haven't heard it, i'm very excited about this idea....i did look at the song list and it seems like something i could work with...and it looks as though they have at least 3 childrens albums and are coming out with another. Then I got to thinking....Jack Johnson, he has the album Sing-a-long and lullabies based from the curious george soundtrack...this is awesome. And i'm finding all kind of musicians that have made childrens albums...including the barenaked ladies. I'm going to check them all out and i'll let you know if they any good!


Yesterday...i got the card that states my last name has officially changed....its weird. I decided to practice before signing it...i signed my last name great....but i totally messed up my first name....isn't that how it always is! :)
1.5 days of work left...woohoo!!

Kenny Loggins has a children's album with a song about Pooh, you should check into that (i'm kidding of course) :)

You should check out For the Kids and For the Kids 2. It has all kind of people on it. Also, Kindermusik has awesome cds and also Do-Re-Mi & You. The website for Do-Re-Mi and You is www.drmy.com The 10 in the Bed cd is really, really good. Some other good cds are Mother Goose Rock and Wiggleworms Love You. And Singalong Songs from Scotland (this last 3 are all on I-tunes). And of course Raffi and Veggie Tales, but you probably already knew about those! Can you tell I have a 3 year old?
