How to teach my children music at home?We Answered:
My mum started me off on the Bastien piano books (I think it was Piano for the Very Young) when I was about 2 1/2. They introduced concepts in a really good way, lots of fun, stuff to colour in and a very enjoyable way to learn. I presume they're still available - don't really know!Debra Said:
I recently went to China for cultural exchange with other professionals, can I deduct the trip from my taxes?We Answered:
If you itemize deductions, you can claim this on Schedule A, line 21 for unreimbursed employee expenses. Keep in mind that you can only claim that portion of the total unreimbursed employee expenses and certain other expenses which exceed 2% of your adjusted gross income.If you do not itemize deductions, you cannot claim the expenses associated with this trip.

How do I teach preschoolers music?We Answered:
Repetition is the key. My preschool kids loved songs and they picked them up quickly. We would pick a song a week and add it to our list...we would sing the songs during break times and transitions...they loved it! The song of the week would be sung a few times during the day to make sure they got it by the end of the week...We also taught our 5 year olds songs for their graduation...they learned long songs like The Ants go Marching and a song about butterflies a friend made up, they not only learned the songs but they sang them so well in front of their parents!
Just make it fun, include hand movements and when they start to get bored either move on to a different song, have them make as much noise as they can and then get quite when you say stop, or have them play instruments...
Have fun!

teaching 3-5 years old music?We Answered:
I think with that age it's best to have them participate by mimicking some things that they can relate to. Concrete things like the sound a train makes using wood blocks with some kids rubbing the swoosh swoosh sound and the others doing the clap sound and a third group blowing the whistle.... ie.. swoosh swoosh clap, swoosh swoosh clap, toot toot..etc... Or mimic the sound of a Horse with blocks.. Doing this as u tell a story related to the things mimicked... U got to understand that at that age there not going to even come close to understanding the concept of rhythm and time, but they will naturally understand or at least fallow a beat that has a concrete relationship with something simple like said train or what ever... When we are in mamas belly all we hear, feel and live bye is the beat of mamas heart... So its pre programed into us all ready. Using the examples above allows the kids to vocalize it.... U picken up what I'm put'en down? Hope this helps, and props for taking on what will prove to be a very important aspect of the little ones life's...Harold Said:
