We love to sing and dance around these parts, and what a great way to learn!
We have several different learning CDs that we play in the car and the house - numbers, the alphabet, geography, hymns, etc.
I decided to pick the best songs with information the girls are learning and put them all onto one disc.
I also purchased a couple of learning songs from itunes to add to the bunch.
Here is our playlist:
- Books of the Bible by Quigley James
- Nothing but the Blood by Jadon Lavik
- Months of the Year by Mark D. Pencil and Friends
- Days of the Week by Twin Sister Productions
- Counting to Ten by Twin Sister Productions
- Counting to Twenty by Twin Sister Productions
- Counting by Tens by Twin Sister Productions
- Alphabet Rock by Twin Sister Productions
- Continents and Oceans by Larry and Kathy Troxel

Oh - and when will you be selling your CD of learing songs? Tee hee!!!
What a great idea - think I'll look through our playlists and CD's this weekend for something similar!
Thanks for sharing and have fun dancing and singing with the girls!

You can also use an MP3 player for this. Many now have speakers or you can buy them on the cheep. A lot of them can be plugged through a car radio system too.
We asked the kids Aunt and Uncle to get them MP3 players for Christmas 2 years ago. They were small things - found in the Wal-Mart toy isle, ate batteries, but the girls LOVED them. I liked that I could put all kinds of books, sermons, educational talks, educational songs, AWANA verses, whatever I could find (and a LOT can be had for free). They could also record things for themselves.
Joel got a FP3 player by Fisher Price. It eats batteries too and is not as flexible. You have to convert items from an exsisting CD.
BUT, this Christmas, the girls got Mosaic Zens. They hold a LOT more, and have built in speakers. They also have all of the family pictures on them as jpg files. Kendra leaves hers with Vannan on Sunday mornings, to record the morning sermon. She helps me in Junior church. Then she listens later.
You can use the record feature to record some of your childs favorite stories for car trips.
I'm planning to ask for Joel a "better" Mp3 player for next year. New baby sister can use the FP3 player after she is born. :)
I wanted to recommend CDs I use often in my classroom. They are by Dr. Jean Feldman. She is wonderful and has great songs that my 3 year old loves, my kindergarteners, even big girls like yours!
Thanks for the song list!
There's some great cd mixes you at onewaystreet dot com. I love there books of the bibles song and so do my kids. they also remade a few secular songs and just changed the lyrics... my son giggles everytime.
I'm always on the lookout for fun, parent-friendly children's music (I can't stand The Wiggles and The Doodlebops, but I'll admit I'm partial to the nostalgia of Sesame Street :). If you're looking for a few recommendations, I've written a bit on my blog.
