Sing
along and share music from the '70's, 50's, 30's, and '90's -- 1890's
that is. Gigi & Mike throw a musical party for the whole family
with their lively sing-along hootenannies. They use folk songs to
investigate history and storytelling, as well as share how music
is written, how lives used to be lived in generations past, how
musical instruments can work for kids, and how the kids can tell
their own stories through singing.

to the e-newsletter list
