This book is a great source to have if you care for young children. It offers a selection of age appropriate things to do in rythyme with your children. This book has all of the words to those songs that you sung as a child as well as some new songs. If you desire to make your own musical instruments then this book is for you. There are plenty of instruments to make using available household materials. I recomend this book to parents, day-care providers and teachers of young children. It is a great book!

This book provides many games, activities and songs, to help teach children music concepts through play, without the use of musical terms. Very easy to read and anyone can use this book; musician or not.

I am taking a music and movement class for a degree in Childhood Development. This book has helped my with many of my activity plans and to come out of my shell.
