Reflections Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 My littlest loves music. Loves to dance and sing to the songs. He really enjoyed the Music and Me class we took - but we had gotten in to that for free and I can't really afford ongoing classes. What music program have you used or seen that you've liked? Thanks! :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristinannie Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Making Music Praying Twice. It is Catholic (but only a few songs on each CD are Catholic). It is completely awesome. I do it with my 6 and 4 year olds, but my 2 year old LOVES it. He is the one that begs for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmilyK Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 If I had a do-over with that age child, I would just play a lot of good music (Cds from the library, Pandora, etc) -- classical, world music, folk, whatever I like. I was so tired during those years I think I didn't put on CDs as much as I should have, but if you have a computer or other device, with Pandora and the like you can just have music going all the time. My other do-over dream is to have a lot of those ethic musical instruments and the like, to play along with all the music I'd be playing. Music in Motion is a catalog that has tons of that kind of stuff. http://www.musicmotion.com/product.htm?pid=432658 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purduemeche Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Kindermusik is amazing if you can find an offering in your area. We cannot afford it with 8 kids, so we purchased Making Music, Praying Twice since we heard it's a similar program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomatHWTK Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Kinderbach? You could try the app version, I think it costs less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do it with my 6 and 4 year olds, but my 2 year old LOVES it. He is the one that begs for it! :iagree: We are loving it. There are folk songs and all sorts of general kid songs along with Christian songs. Only a couple are specifically Catholic. Here's the site. You can also order from chc. You'll need to buy instruments separate. I spent around $50 on nicer instruments but I could have gotten away with $25. I bought $3 of remnant rip stop nylon to make dancing scarves and another $2 to make ribbon streamers. I'm using w/ my almost 4 yo and a toddler. You use the same program over each year as their skills increase so in the long run it's a good value if you're starting at 2.

Reflections Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Thanks everyone!!:001_smile: I'm looking at the Making Music and am trying to make sense of it.... I really appreciate the suggestion about buying ribbon from the fabric store. I looked at Kinderbach, but is it just for piano? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
