Noodle Loaf - Music Education Podcast for Kids – Details, episodes & analysis

New Episode! New Book! Singing! Storytelling! Songwriting! Exclamation Points!!! This surprise episode drop is in celebration of Dan's new book, We Share This Earth. It's a rhyming book with beautiful illustrations featuring specific places around the globe and the people who live there. ✪ We begin with the Echo Song We Share This Earth that uses text from the book of the same name to bask in the warmth of our global community. The song is available as a single wherever streams get streamed. ✪ Next up, we write a story together during a game called You Make The Story. It's like Mad Libs in real time with a soundtrack and no pencils. ✪ We finish strong with a round of KaraYOUke. You get to combine your singing and your storytelling into a triumphant display of extemporaneous songwriting. KaraWHOke? KaraYOUke! We hope you enjoy our music and games for pre-k, kindergarten and all little kids! It's like a music lesson that happens whenever I write a new book. ✪✪✪ WE SHARE THE EARTH BOOK OUT NOW!: https://bookshop.org/a/9590/9780593658291 ✪✪✪ ✪✪✪ I have written three pictures books celebrating families.

There's never a bad time to sing about Autumn and learn some Spanish but there are particularly good times, and one of those is now. ✪ We begin with a Clap It Back song in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month. We use the power of rhythm and song to teach you the common Spanish phrase for "I want to eat a snack in a fort with you." You will never be hungry and lonely in a fort in a Spanish speaking country again. De nada. ✪ Next up, we get in the Fall spirit with an Echo Song titled Sleepy Trees that will teach you about why trees lose their leaves and polish up your pitch matching capabilities. ✪ Lasterly I share a new song called I Like This Outfit. It is dedicated to all the Noodlinos big or small who liked an outfit enough to wear it multiple days in a row. You know who you are. We hope you enjoy our music and games for pre-k, kindergarten and all little kids! It's like a music lesson that happens when you least expect it. ✪✪✪ WE SHARE THE SCHOOL BOOK OUT NOW!: https://bookshop.org/a/9590/9780593658253 ✪✪✪ ✪✪✪ I have written three pictures books celebrating families.

Music people! You have arrived just in time to make rhymes, sing songs and do some creative movement games all with your host in chief, Dan Saks.  Today's episode raises a glass to celebrating Autism Awareness month way ahead of schedule.  We'll also be toasting old school flows and the art of snowman building.  If none of that makes sense it's because you haven't listened to the show yet. So do that pls.  This Rhyme Time is a little different than our usual version.  In this one, your job is to channel your inner Run DMC to anticipate and finish the rhyme at the each of our rapper's couplets. So don a Kangol and loosely lace your Adidas cause it's about to get tricky to rock a thyme that's right on time.  ✪ Today's Echo Song was inspired by a family of long time Noodlinos who requested I write an echo song to celebrate neurodiversity, or as they put it, Different Brains.  This neurodiversity awareness song for kids is an appreciation for the different kinds of brains we all have and will hopefully help neurotypical kids see themselves in the autistic children in their communities.  ✪ Who doesn't love a Time To Move game that employs a lil musique concrète to create an imaginary snowman building creative movement game? Hopefully, not you because that's what this game is. Enjoy! ✪ We hope you enjoy our music and games for preschoolers, kindergarteners and early elementary age kids!  It's like a music lesson for kids that is equal parts music and love. 30 DAY FREE TRIAL AT DIY: https://diy.org/?ref=noodleloaf ✪✪✪ I have written three pictures books celebrating families.
