Music Monday ~ Picasso, That's Who!

~ Review & Giveaway

Music Mondays!

  

Today I have a treat for you & a giveaway too! Hope Harris has released a FUN, action oriented CD called Picasso, That's Who! designed to introduce children to different artists and encourage their FREE spirit & ability to be spontaneous. 

Picasso, That’s Who 

(And so can you!) 

Adventures in Art 

My Thoughts:

This is a wonderful CD. It's full of life and movement. Hope Harris has a beautiful voice that encourages kids to sing along (grown ups too - I was in the car singing away) and while I was listening I felt like the words gave an 'image' and I almost felt like I was painting along & dancing to the music (wouldn't that be a picture - me dancing LOL). 

Be sure to check out Hope's website - there is a wonderful craft activity that you and the kid's can make. "How about some Maracas baby?"  and you can hear 2 of the songs from this CD and several from Cousins Jamboree too!

Songs:

A-C-T-I-O-N (Jackson Pollock)

Picasso, That's Who! (Pablo Picasso)

Who made the Splash? (David Hockney)

Grandma Moses (Grandma Moses)

Swingin' Little Dock (Alexander Calder)

See A Painting By Georgia O'Keeffe (Georgia O'Keeffe)

Dot in Motion (Paul Klee)

Telling Stories (Romare Bearden)

M-A-T-I-S-S-E, Matisse (Henri Matisse)

Impression, Monet (Claude Monet)

Paint a Picture, Too

BUT don't go to far - you can listen to Picasso, That's Who (which by the way is my favorite on this CD) with a direct link right from Classic Children's Books! Tell us which song is YOUR favorite!

About the Artist:

Hope Harris has been dancing to music and using it to stage her own theatrical productions since she was a little girl. She has worked on and off broadway and in Regional and Stock productions. She has also created her own CD's beginning with a Lullaby CD for her own children and most recently her CD Cousins Jamboree won the Parent's Choice Silver Honor Award!

I know you're going to love this CD as much as I do. Technically, this CD is for kids age 3-10 but I think it would be a great House Cleaning CD - but then you might not get much done since you'll be dancing along. LOL

~ Be sure to return on Wednesday to learn a little about Picasso &
   see some FUN activities you can do too!

Picasso, That's Who will be released on 5/22 - and you can purchase it and Cousins Jamboree on either CDBaby.com or on iTunes!
