If you have already purchased my new book, you know there is an exciting area called Digital Resources where you can find visuals, manipulatives, videos, student handouts, and more.
The exciting part of this area is that I can add to it as we develop more of our songs through animation! This is Oscar the Cat.
You can see photos of his real home and read his bio on page 37.
Here’s Oscar’s video, a fun way to introduce the song to your students, who will LOVE to watch this, but will also love to sing this song with the accompaniment track. They can act it out by pretending to be the tree, the cat or the people!
Watch here!
And for those of you who can, I hope I will see you at the Workshop!

Here’s another character from my new book, Holiday Songs and Winter Adventures! Vinnie the Vole lives with friends and family under the snow in the song “Subnivean”.
This topic is so exciting (there’s several predators!) to learn about, but it is also great for playing Orff and percussion, singing, creating, and of course acting too!
Here’s Vinnie the Vole!
And just in case you missed our 3-legged cat Oscar, this is another video from the book’s Digital Resources section:

From a simple dance to Orff with recorder, this song just makes you smile! Here’s our animated video to introduce the children to the Turkey Song and give yourself some much needed vocal rest! (It’s short, so repeat it! ha)
This will be added to the Digital Resources that are included with the Holiday Songs and Winter Adventures book.
I’m so excited to announce the summer LIVE training will be at our annual location, Redondo Beach Hotel, June 25-28, here in my neighborhood AND on the east coast at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark, Aug 17-20!
The early bird rate registration is now open and returning teachers (Online or Live) come for HALF PRICE. Take a look at our awesome locations!

Thanks to our member Carla for posting this precious picture in Music Box of her class acting out “Oscar the Cat” from “What’s That on the Tree”. This song is from Holiday Songs and Winter Adventures, which recently won the 2019 Creative Child Award!
Here’s a wonderful winter version of I Love the Mountains sung by ages 1-14 (a fun new winter song from Holiday Songs and Winter Adventures). Some advanced students played it on recorder, some students are signing and some tots come in on the BOOM! HA!
Thank you for your support and inspiration in 2019. Wishing you a Musical 2020!
