Hi folks!
Just wanted to share the fact that our web techie will not be available to change the discount price on this year’s teacher training until Monday, so if you would still like the biggest savings on LIVE summer training in Redondo Beach, CA or New York, NY, you have a bit more time!
We’d love to see you there!
Here’s another hit from our Ocean Theme! I’m all about repetition with variety! Here’s one way we played “Scuba Man” in class. Check out the video and find the felt set at the Music Rhapsody shop here.
Click here to watch the video.
Some students invented their own way to do Scuba Man this week…
Child 1: “The blue center of the rug is the ocean.”
Child 2: “Put the treasures there!”
Child 3: “We can be in our submarines!” (Sits down in a color on the border of the rug)
Child 4: “These are the same submarines as the ones at Disneyland. But they aren’t scary!”
The kids loved pretending to dive underwater, then singing about what they saw.
Remember, just click “Ask Lynn” if you have questions!
This week’s featured video is a floor game from the Babies Make Music curriculum. Whether you are a teacher, aunt or uncle, parent or grandparent, the baby training from the online or live training is SUPER beneficial! For some awesome beneficial games for all age groups, babies through middle school, just type in “Games” in the SEARCH feature in Music Box. Sooo many great ones!
Music Rhapsody members, you have access to all training materials 24/7.
I’ve had a few requests so I’ll share those with you the next couple weeks.
The Spanish and English lyrics were not included with our digital download of the beloved Spanish Music Rhapsody CD. Thanks to your requests, we now have this available. If you have previously purchased the digital CD or have misplaced yours, you can now get it free from Music Box Downloads in the category “Spanish Music Rhapsody”. Spanish Music Rhapsody CD Booklet.
One of these songs is especially great with our popular TK/K Fall Lesson Pack!
If you are new to Spanish Music Rhapsody, check out the free visuals of our popular Spanish version of “Old MacDonald Had a Farm” called “En La Granja de Mi Tio.” This is so awesome for learning colors, numbers and animal names. Here are our Big Kids and Young Musicians classes at a Farm Concert singing their solos and showing some awesome “call and response.”
En La Granja de Mi Tio
IMPORTANT TIP: Remember to print out TWO OF EACH VISUAL and laminate it back to back. This way the children can see their own card and the class (or audience) can see it too.
Next week, I will highlight the alto recorder lesson that was requested for ALL the Pretty Little Horses!
I hope to see many of you in Virginia on September 23 and in Maine on September 29! Here are some upcoming workshops.
The next online training cohort is Wednesday at 5pm Pacific time. Register now and I ‘ll send you the invite to join us!
See you in the box!

Your motivation to learn and be better for your students is obvious by your requests, questions and certainly by the number of you that have gone through training and become members! WOW! Thank you!
This week’s video is for a dedicated member who wants to play her alto recorder with the recording “All the Pretty Little Horses.” Since many of us play sopranino, the alto recorder will be E-C for you too! You see our beloved Cocoa the Horse is cheering you on!
The printed music and the recording are free in Music Box Downloads.
