I'm a musician and music lover. I'm also the mom of twin toddlers, and we've got another on the way.

Here's a little bit of how music and I coexist:

Comment by jennifer steptoe on August 27, 2011 at 8:23pm: Katie, I recommend that you get some nylon scarves for your music class. The kids can move the scarves and their bodies to varies recordings of music. Mix it up between slow, smooth pieces and fast, bouncy music. You can be a leader by demonstrating (modeling) coordinating movements. They will love it. I promise.

Comment by ispina on August 23, 2011 at 9:56pm: Katie, thanks for your comment. Yes, it is a great idea for development for children. If you don't feel comfortable singing, focusing on rhythm, repeating rhythmic patterns etc. is good idea. Enjoy!

Comment by Katie, Mom365 Host on August 23, 2011 at 4:58pm: My friend is starting up a weekly "Musical Morning" class for toddlers. Each parent has to take a week to lead the group in song and activity. I think it will be really fun--and I'm also pretty terrified! Um, I can't sing, and I haven't played the piano in about 10 years. I might have to lead the kids in kazoo playing, or maybe we'll just have to bang on pots, lol! Anyway, it's a good and affordable way to introduce your little one to music and rhythm.
