Overview

"Teaching your little ones and the curious on multiple levels is what Lightning's Lessons (""LL"") is all about. Readers (of all levels) and music lovers (of all ages) will thoroughly enjoy this multi-platform learning experience! While reading through our lessons in lyrical form you will be guided by our lovable cast of characters. So why not turn up the soundtrack* of Lightning's Lessons Vol. 1 to really bring the characters to life and sing-along with our blues all-stars! LL's mission is 2-fold: 1. To assist in teaching young children (PreK to 1st grade) (and curious minds) basic learning concepts. 2. To inspire and ignite an early love for roots/blues music in a fun and memorable way. LL's lyrical book and soundtrack outline basic learning concepts which are perfect for reading aloud to your children or in the classroom. Bunny rabbit host Little Lightning (and cast of friends) will take your children on a learning journey focusing on: the days of the week and months of the year, directions (North, South, East, and West), counting, shapes, manners, eating healthy, the seasons, ABC's, a blues story, and more! Not only will children have fun, but parents will, too! Parents, we proudly introduce world-class musicians who will also inspire you to sing along with your children. So, join the fun...Snap your fingers, clap your hands, and do the shape dance! Combining our lyrical sing-along book and music, LL's entertaining multi-platform experience can assist in spelling, literacy, and memorization, as it was thoughtfully constructed to produce a positive learning environment and encourage participation. So enjoyable, your children will forget they are learning! *sold separately."

"""Specifically, The ABC song, ABC'neeze! I can see this song as a read-aloud and then an awesome brain break experience for the pre-k - 1st grade classrooms. It's catchy, it's fun, and it's easy to follow along. It also teaches some great vocabulary words that the children may not have heard and/or seen before (guinea pig, salamander, etc)!"" - Diana Nelson - Elementary School Teacher, Redondo Beach School District ""I LOVE the diversity of songs in Lightning's Lessons! Each song outlines a lesson that will capture kids attention - perfect for all learners at any age! The songs are incredibly catchy which will also help with memorization (they won't even realize they are learning!) and they are really fun for all kids!"" - Ms. Kimberlee Karmelich - L.A.USD elementary teacher (since 1996)"
