Henry the Puppy
This song focuses on pulse and encourages the children to feel the music by using not just their voices but also their feet and hands. This is a fantastic song to help children’s co-ordination and listening skills.
Included: Sheet music and MP3 track

Flying High
A beautiful, calm, soaring song about flying a kite. Here, the children are learning about pitch, and can be encouraged to follow the music up with their hands and back down again, before quietly whispering goodbye to their kite.
Included: Sheet music and MP3 track
Price: £2.00
Skull and Crossbones
All children love pirates, and in this song they will have the chance to sing the role of Captain or crew, in a swashbuckling turn taking song. There is a strong sense of pulse here, and really fun accompanying MP3 tracks!

“Teaching Blackbird classes has been a real pleasure. The curriculum Helen has produced is well thought out and straightforward to deliver. Kids and parents love the classes and often say how much they look forward to coming from week to week and how they love the songs they’re learning. Kids that go on to instrument learning have had a great start with basic knowledge of musical ideas from the classes” – Georgina
