Description Twenty four lively songs introduce the joy of rhythm with the revised expanded version of this popular recording. Children explore basic musical concepts as they move and sing. While developing musical skills, they also improve skills in language, math, fine and gross motor co-ordination and auditory discrimination. In addition, these songs contain a variety of playful images which stimulate children's creative and imaginative powers. For extra fun, children can use rhythm instruments such as wood blocks, sticks, bells, tambourines, and maracas. The extraordinarily flexible nature of this recording makes it an effective tool which parents and teachers can use in almost any situation. Changes in tempo are illustrated by a rollicking ROLLER COASTER ride and the high spirited party song SWITCH ON THE MUSIC. Children learn about note value and meter by WALKING NOTES to a swing jazz rhythm, playing FIVE BEATS TO EACH MEASURE, or counting beats and pauses as they PLAY AND REST. Children are encouraged to recognize and repeat simple rhythmic patterns with the cheerful strains of TAP YOUR STICKS, the classic verses of MOTHER GOOSE HAS RHYTHMICAL RHYMES, and the down home beat of the BEAN BAG SHAKE. Children can create their own patterns as they play along with the joyful sounds of KRIS KRINGLE'S JINGLE BELL BAND, RHYTHMS ON PARADE, and the Latin rhythms of STICK DANCE. As children's awareness of rhythm is heightened they learn to recognize the patterns in the ticking of a clock, the wailing of a siren, the crashing of ocean waves and other SOUNDS AROUND THE WORLD. A colorful assortment of animals help children explore key concepts. The fearless MICE GO MARCHING up a giant monster to emphasize changes in volume. Snails, turtles, rabbits and cheetahs reinforce the concept of SLOW AND FAST. The WOODPECKER taps out rhythmic patterns and the magical JINGLE BELL BEES explore shaking and vibrating motions. Horses, cows, rattlesnakes, and cats invite children to sing and play with OLD MAC DONALD'S BAND. Gophers, eagles, spiders, flies, a puppy and a bouncing kangaroo encourage children to explore space while SPREADING RHYTHM. Animals, the alphabet, and phonics combine in CHOOSE AN INSTRUMENT making a fun way to pass out rhythm instruments. (If you don't want to buy instruments, the songs HOMEMADE BAND and I'M A LITTLE WOODBLOCK tell you how to make them! ) A signal which tells children when to stop playing is introduced with a bluegrass beat in COUNTRY CLASSICS STOP AND START. Children also play rhythm instruments to make the sound of falling junk in a story about a silly family who's only way to clean house is to STUFF IT IN THE CLOSET. A guide with song lyrics and activities is included.
