NPR Morning Edition featured a segment on 'Sing To Your Baby’ today, a collection of love songs and sing-plays that "just might boost your confidence" (NPR) in establishing a musical bond between you and your newborn.
Click the link below to hear GRAMMY award-winning children’s musician and author Cathy Fink talk about how she and her partner Marcy Marxer recorded the 11 songs in keys for both mothers and fathers, and how the songs are "zipper" songs, with lyrics that can easily be changed or personalized to work for your baby.
http://www.npr.org/2011/05/11/136028850/sing-to-your-baby-fighting-parental-stage-frightParents.com also posted a piece on the project this week, which is accompanied by a beautifully illustrated 32-page page book.
"We need to use every method we can to open the lines of communication with our children," Fink and Marxer told Parents.com. “By incorporating music and singing early on, these tools will always be available to parent and child.”
