The way it works
The 35 – 40 minute set is designed to involve kids ages 2-6 in fun kids folk songs such as Down by The Bay, Old McDonald, Wheels On The Bus, Five Lil Monkeys and You Are My Sunshine. Shakers and tambourines are utilized to develop rhythm skills. Two mics are set up at two to three foot heights for the kids vocals. I recruit children from the audience who come up to sing at the mics. This introduces them to performing in front of others. I bring all the sound equipment and rhythm instruments.
I have a special introductory offer of $150 for a 40 to 45 minute set. This would be for a group of 25 or less children, $80. for each additional set the same visit, back to back. I can e-mail you MP3 files of some songs upon request along with references. Your group will receive a free Mr. Eric CD just for scheduling a show!
