FEATURED LINK FOR TEACHERS

Great source for songs! CMN connects people who celebrate the positive power of music in children's lives by exchanging ideas, visions and music. We love to attend their annual conferences and participate in the online digest of ideas and conversations amongst members. If you're a teacher that believes in the power of music to help children, you should become a member of CMN.

FEATURED LINK FOR PARENTS

If you're looking for more great music for your children, we can personally recommend our friend, Lou DelBianco. We met Lou many moons ago and we've remained friends and fans over the years. His CDs are wonderful and they're produced by  the brilliant and talented, Marshall Toppo, who also produced our CD, "Happy Holidays Around the World". Our favorite CD is "A Little Bit Clumsy".

FEATURED LINK FOR KIDS

Don't have a medical school degree? Don't worry! Just visit this site where anyone can experience what it's like to do knee-replacement surgery. We like this site because it demonstrates the interactive potential for learning on computers and the power of simple animation. Our kids, Stephanie (7) and Helen (12), both liked the site, but even Beth & Scott were a little freaked out by the optional photos of an actual surgery.
