I was just wondering how to start music classes at home, and that is a good idea, try to focus on a composer and let the kids feel the music and enjoy it. Just today we were working with music and it was lovely, specially for my two-year-old. he loves music so much... it's the first thing he asks for when he gets up in the morning. He can't speak yet, but he comes to me ands points to the cd player and starts dancing , he's so funny!Thanks for sharing your experiences, they are always such an inspiration to me! Hi!

I've never heard of the Opal Wheeler series before tonight, though. Those look wonderful. You can bet I'll be utilizing the library for a few of those! And I had no idea Fandex made a composers guide. What a terrific stocking stuffer for my oldest. She'd LOVE that! Thanks!!!

They are appreciated! I have been reading to the boys from The Story of the Orchestra, which I really like. We did the instrument section first and now we are starting the composers. I'll be checking out Classics for Kids! And nice to see you 'back.' :) Thanks for the music study ideas. They are appreciated!

God created us to love it. I wish I had done what you are doing when my children were younger. The years are flying by until they are gone. Although our lives are filled with music, they haven't been exposed to particular composers in such a way. We always listened so randomly and without thought to the composer. I do have some precious memories of the kids making up stories as a song played out. We would be driving in the car, listening to classical music, and they would take turns telling a glorious tale that the music made them imagine. That was so fun. amanda Music is such a gift.

Thanks for all of the great links! I started playing different classical cd's when the boys were really young. I would put the CD in to play on repeat and then sit the cover upright (on display) somewhere nearby, so the kids could see who they were listening to. After about 2 or 3 weeks of hearing the background music and seeing the cover over and over, they would 'know' which music went with which composer. Since the baby has been born, we've been keeping the classical cd's playing in her room, and it gets filtered all over the house, thanks to the baby monitor. :) We got our cd set very, very cheap, at www.cbd.com. Every once in a while they will put them on sale. And thank you, thank you, thank you, for reminding me about Classics For Kids. I had let the boys listen to some of those a while back, but since wiping out my hard drive, and moving and all the other craziness........ I lost my favorites link to it and I forgot all about it! God Bless! :) I love this post. Thanks for all of the great links!
