I have used this book as a source for a workshop I do for early childhood educators. It has excellent ideas and ways of presenting musical concepts. The book content leans a little to the older ages (6-8), rather than the early childhood population. However, it is still valuable for early childhood educators.

I homeschool my kids and we use this book everyday as part of our school curriculum. We have made instruments, we have learned facts, we have appreciated nature with this book and have incorporated it in our daily lessons. It is designed real well - the chapters are awesome and make it so motivating to want to plan a musically rich lesson daily. It is a great book to have for any parent or teacher that wants to create and appreciate music with thier kids.

Very fun book full of great activities. Kids learn to make music with their own bodies and even get to make homemade musical instruments. We use this book for homeschool but it would be great for anyone! Williamson Publishing has the best books. Check them all out!

I am a public school teacher. I thought this book had music lesson plans or ideas on how to teach a big group. Instead it is more of a resource book with ideas for music making without much of a budget. Good for xeroxing. Great for the music enthusiast or someone who wants to share music with kids in their lives.
