BNL Snacktime!

Bare Naked Ladies have been a favorite since my college days, so I was surprised to learn that they had come out with a children’s CD. After listening to a sample of a few of the songs I decided to purchase the CD. We really like most of the songs, but could do without the “Food Party” and “Canadian Snacktime Trilogy” songs. My daughter’s favorite song is “Pollywog In a Bog” which inspired our multisensory learning experience about pollywogs. I also found the “Crazy ABC’s” song smartly written and think it would be really fun for middle to high school aged kids to dissect the song and learn the spelling and vocabulary for all the words mentioned! The BNL keep to their typical humor and cleverness throughout this fun CD.

Phonics Music

I happened upon this CD by accident, because I purchased a phonics workbook for some speech therapy students and the CD was included. As it turns out, my oldest daughter really likes the songs and learned her long and short vowel sounds from this CD. It also has other great songs about rhyming, ABCs, long and short vowel sounds, hard and soft sounds (c and g), silent-e, digraphs, qu- (stick together like glue!), and tongue twisters to name a few. I believe songs are an easy way for kids (and adults) to learn and try to incorporate them into whatever I’m teaching. I would recommend this to any elementary teacher or parent!
