Sing into Reading: the Blog
Little ones love literacy.
Music is magic!
Creating a Literacy-Rich Environment
Members of Sing into Reading receive excellent instruction for children teaching literacy through music and love. For a limited time, members will also receive instruction for parents: "Teach Your Child to Read With Music and Love." Check out this sample class, "Creating a Literacy-Rich Environment."
Cherish the Rosy Moments
You know those moments where you feel like you are in a Capra fim, and everything feels right? I call them "rosy moments." Cherish them.
I have two boys, 12 and 14. When I think back on their babyhood and when they were young children, I remember a few rosy moments. (And I remember a few "not-so-rosy-moments.") The rest is a wash.
When you find yourself in a rosy moment, cherish it. Write about it. Save it.
I would like to give you more rosy moments with your little ones. Please come to a free class. I am offering a free Baby Music class tomorrow, sign up here: https://www.
Enjoy your holidays.
Cherish the rosy moments.

Daily Read Alouds
Please read to your child every day.
In this blog, I talk about three benefits of reading to your little one every day: literacy, learning, and love.
Keep singing,
