QuirkyKidAcademy Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 It's my own fault for waiting so long, but I'm in dire need of a tin whistle for classical conversations which starts in about 10 days. If you have one you are willing to part with, please PM me. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Elf Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Is it the same thing as a penny whistle? I just looked on Amazon for tin whistle and they have those for $13. Sorry, Amazon is my GoTo for everything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmoira Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Do you have or know someone with Amazon Prime? This is a fine starter tin whistle (assuming you need a D whistle). http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002I8Y6W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davysmom Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Our local music store carries them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommyof4ks Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Our band store carries them, and the kids do not need them until the 7th week unless your director has something planned for the kids to do with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy in KS Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 You don't need them until week 7. Look on amazon for a mel bec tin whistle (key of d). It's what you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuirkyKidAcademy Posted August 21, 2012 Author Share Posted August 21, 2012 Getting info from my director has been. . . like pulling teeth, so I thank you for the information! I will check with the local music store and also Amazon. Here's another question - are you CCers on CCConnected yet? My director keeps telling us that it isn't available yet, even though the blogs are saying differently. I'm getting frustrated in that regard. I want to see what's available there before I buy more materials. (Half a Hundred Acre Wood blog has soooo many good ideas!) Anyway, thanks again. That relieves my stress a bit.

i.love.lucy Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Tammy, those of us that were already on CCConected still are, but it was closed to new registrations while the IT team works on the new Portal. I understand it will be up and running very quickly. Honestly though, unless you are tutoring, you shouldn't need it much before the first few weeks. Oh, and no one posts materials for sale there. It's purely a forum for asking questions about how to use or supplement materials and largely it's for tutoring ideas. Sorry you have had trouble getting info!

I'm a director and I want to address the CC Connected issue. Your director has to enter all of her families into the portal and it's a time intensive, un-intuitive process. It just opened within the past week and she may have other things she needs to spend her time doing right now. Since your community is about to start, she is probably busier than at any other time of the year and has had to put off entering families.

OrganicAnn Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Or check Irish stores, they might also have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuirkyKidAcademy Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 Thanks for the information. I just need to chill. Just because her timeline isn't the same as mine, doesn't make her wrong. She is a very sweet person who has gone out of her way to make the new families feel welcome. (Our community has doubled from 8 kids to 16 this year.) Thank you again for the info and for talking me down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
