More Fun Kid's Music--Giveaway!!

I have another fun, educational and "get dancing" kind of CD to share and giveaway! The album, "Mister Felipe-- Cruzando El Border" brings wonderful bilingual music for kids to sing along with, dance to, and laugh with.

Mister Felipe is actually Philip Handmaker, a Spanish and Music teacher living in Taos, a town in northern New Mexico. Growing up in New Mexico, he heard a lot of Spanish on the playground, and he studied the language in high school and college. After getting a master's degree in Applied Linguistics and teaching bilingually in Arlington, Virginia for several years, he at last moved back to Nuevo México, where he is combining his lifelong passions of music, language, and teaching.

In his album, Handmaker combines English and Spanish, and my kids love it, which makes me very happy as I know that right now my munchkin boys are like sponges soaking up whatever educational resources that I can provide them. When they listen, sing and dance around as they are actually learning Spanish words, months, numbers and even the alphabet, it is awesome.

Mr. Felipe has a great website where not only can you hear the songs, read lyrics kids can learn about different instruments, print out fun coloring pages, and check out fun examples of Spanglish that visitors send in.

There are cute silly songs like the ¡Fuera, Perro... all about a very mischievous dog ( my 4 year old's favorite!), and Vamos Afuera which is about two friends, one who wants to play outside and another who's worried about getting dirty and prefers indoors. Muévete is a reggaeton song that gets kids dancing as they learn the parts of the body. Me Gustan los Animales is all about animals on a farm. And there are fun sing along songs that teach kids the months of the year, numbers and teh alphabet.

Funky Kidz CD GIVEAWAY (Fun Fun Fun!)

Did I mention that this Kids CD is Fun?? Hehe.

What else could possibly describe this great children's CD! Think laughing, clapping, smiling, dancing and twirling, and good old silliness. That is exactly what Funky Kidz is all about.

This CD is a compilation of some of the best classics "funkified" , as it were. Songs like " If I Only Had a Brain," "You've Got a Friend," "Yellow Submarine," and my personal all time favorite (hehe) "The Hokey Pokey," are sung by wonderful musicians from New Orleans.

Lauren Busch Singer, the executive producer, has really put together a collection of fun songs that bring back fun memories for me and my hubby, and at the same time delighted my kids. I truly believe listening to music is so important for kids, as it build their appreciation for song, brings out creativity, and gets them moving! Lauren is a mom herself to two boys and was disappointed by the offerings of children's music and set out to expose her kids to a variety of musical genres. From the time they were in her belly, she played everything from hard rock to classical ballads. Her sons, Jake, 9 (assistant producer) and Aidan, 6, took a love to the upbeat New Orleans sound and so the concept was born: "Take kids songs and just make them funky."

Lauren has very graciously agreed to give one Happy Healthy Families' reader of copy of "Funky Kidz"--just in time for the Ultimate Blog Party happening!
