Ages 3 to 9 years. All of the songs and rhymes in this book, passed down from generation to generation, are full of wonder, magic, and make-believe and encourage children -- and parents -- to move with the beat. This collection includes beat games in which the song or rhyme follows the child's preferred beat tempo, games in which everyone stays in one place and the beat is felt in hand movements, and activities where the beat is put in the feet as everyone travels around the room. Among the popular songs included are "We're Going on a Bear Hunt," "Rig-a-Jig Jig," "Did You Ever See a Lassie," and "Cobbler, Cobbler."

The imaginative and effective activities in this book invite children to discover the sounds they can make with their voices. Not only are the activities fun, they also serve as excellent vocal warm-ups for singing. Children are taught that just as an athlete warms up various muscles before competing, singers must warm up their vocal muscles in order to be able to sing with flexibility. Young singers learn to understand the range of sounds their own voices can make, how they can more effectively control those sounds, and ultimately sing in tune and with feeling.
