of continuing development after attending one of our seminars,
conference sessions or training projects.

and what to say when singing the song. Then you have the same songs
without the voice over for you to practise yourself.
An ideal training resource for trainers and lecturers in nursery
and college settings. Indispensable if you're working with babies
and children and want to learn some new songs and ideas. Practice
singing with Anna and Abi, using their tried and tested techniques,
then have a go on your own! Printed words and guitar chords inside.

Wriggle and Giggle Picture Songbook & CD
|

|
|
PICC 16
£7.99
|
Fourteen wonderfully illustrated songs, some traditional and some
original, chosen for their wide appeal and suitability for singing
with actions. All the words are clearly reproduced, together with
ideas of how to enjoy the songs and which actions or games work
well with them. Photographs of hand actions or movements make it
easy to learn how to use the songs, whether you're singing with
babies or toddlers or older children.
The accompanying CD has clearly sung, well-pitched renditions of
all the songs, in a simple style with a guitar accompaniment and
basic percussion. A friendly penguin can be tracked down on most
pages, asking a question of the child reader, such as Do you
like being tickled? or How many noses can you see? -
perfect for prompting conversation and discussion of the colourful
illustrations. The book is aimed at anyone caring for babies or
children under 6 years old. It includes help and advice on how to
bring the songs alive and explains why music and song have such
a positive role to play in any child's life.
Available with a companion training manual and staff training workshop
by arrangement. This provides a springboard for organisations to
bring more music/song into their settings. Good discounts on the
book are available for bulk orders.
