Little Einsteins & Musical Missions!

There are so many children's shows on TV today. All of them offer something unique to help stimulate your child's mind and development. The good ones have appealing characters, engaging story lines, and entertaining sing-a-longs. 
I'm sure you've caught yourself singing the theme songs to your child's favorite shows even when they're not around ;-)

Disney's Little Einsteins takes a slightly more involved musical approach to learning by focusing on classical music for the basis of each episode. Join the four main characters(Annie, Quincy, June, & Leo) as they embark on a variety of missions in their musical rocket ship. Inviting your child along for the ride, the quartet uses musical terms and visits diverse places in order to encourage discovery and passion for music & art.  

Little Einsteins originally aired in 2005, so there is now plenty of resources to offer your child. Episodes on DVD, musical CD's, books, apparel, toys, etc. Visit the Little Einsteins interactive webpage to play games, watch episodes & videos, color & create, or read-a-long with story books.

Bring on the NOISE!!!

It is a proven fact that introducing children to music at an early age will help in their development. An easy way to make this happen is to buy your child an instrument, and let them have at it! Yes, the sound of a trumpet squeaking or the beating of a drum may not be your first choice for listening enjoyment, but it's a small sacrifice that will benefit your child for years to come. Plus, they think it's loads of fun, and you'll probably earn a hug/kiss/high five from your little one just for letting them explore the possibilities of sound. Most instruments are fairly inexpensive and can be found at your local super center, or toy store. 

Happy Mother's Day.
