Welcome to the Ultimate Blog Party 2009 put on by 5 Minutes for Mom, thanks for stopping by, I love meeting new people! Please make yourself at home and help yourself to some fun games, music, karaoke, and dancing (I know you can't stay still listening to this music!) There is plenty for all!Let me introduce myself, I'm Andrea, wife, mom, musician, music teacher, and creator of Munchkins and Music, a blog dedicated to helping mom's teach music to their children. I feel that education in music is "most sovereign" and those who learn music will reap from it's many benefits. I have a bachelors degree in music education and have been playing music since I was 8 years old. Please feel free to browse around, you will find:
- New songs to teach your children
- Music crafts
- Information on musical instruments
- Music lessons
- Musical reviews
- Music activities
- And much more!
While you're here, pull up a chair and play some fun on-line music games:
Notes Drums Play Music Kid's Piano
Try some Karaoke (Turn off the music on my sidebar first) :
And please feel free to leave a comment so I can come and visit you at your party!
And now for the prizes:
I'm feeling lucky, so if I won a prize here would be my top 3 choices:
1) #1 100.00 gift certificate to either Pedal Cars or A Rocking Horse to Love from 5 Minutes for Mom.
2) #58 Kitchen Aid Artisan and Stand Mixer from Mom's who Think.
3)# USC 57 Personalized Graphic Button Design from Extravagant Grace Designs.
Here are other choices I would choose:
19, 101, 45, 49, 90, 106, or any target gift certificate.
Of course if I won anything I would be excited! Thanks 5 Minutes for Mom!

What a great blog! And I agree...it's definitely a worthy subject. I have musicians in my house too. I'm so blessed each day to hear the music in our home created and played by my family members.
I just wanted to say hello. I'm over from the Ultimate Blog Party!

Hey Hey! Happy UBP 2009!!!
Oh my gosh, I woke up thinking about Grease today! Singing the songs, wondering if my kids would like it, trying to remember if there's stuff I don't want my kids to see! :) And then, here it is, on your blog. Awesome!!
Hooray! I love your encouragement for kiddos to learn music. Keep it up!
Stopped by via the UBP 09! Glad I did.
My 22 month old daughter LOVES music and dancing! What a great site, I'll be looking around more!
Your playlist sure took me back!
Parties are such fun. I love Karaoke! Party On!
What a great blog! I knew this one was going to be fun as soon as I saw the Grease pic.
I have a three year old and I'm very glad to have found your blog. She loves music and loves to sing and dance.
Thanks!

What a cool blog. This one is definately on my list to further investigate. My daughter Angie is Autistic and loves music so I think this is going to be a great place for us. Especially since I have no musical talent whatsoever. Maybe I can learn something here!! If you get the chance I invite you to stop by and party with me too. Party on! Brenda
Stopping by from the Ultimate Blog Party 2009 site.
Greece I love it it was banned when I was a kid because parents did not like it but then as I got older I watched it and my girls love it as well . It is a classic
Grease is one of the greatest movies ever. I love it. I also am in love with your website, I am a Home Daycare provider, we try to have Music time everyday. Usually right after lunch gets them dancing and helps to get rid of a little more energy before naptime.
I am always looking for other ideas, craft, musical, games. I am partying with the Blog Party, so glad I am I have found some awesome sites.
Thanks, Have Fun!!!

Hi,
I like your site.
My hubby would esp. appreciate you having the Beatles on your blog.
I like the Karaoke idea for the party.
My son would like that it's a music blog. We Homeschool and he has just started hand-drumming classes.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving such an encouraging comment.

The word verification for this post on your blog was "unisom." Funny, huh?
Swinging on by for the party. Both my kids love music so I'll have to come by again. Hope you are enjoying the party as much as I am. Stop by when you get a chance.
Oh I'm going to have to show those games to my daughters (they just love things like that!) And, I'll definitely have to check out your blog more later... (I'm just bookmarking everyone right now, while I blog-hop my way through the party :-p)
