Keeping Up With Kids

Jim Gill, early childhood expert, children’s musician, and author, is co-creating videos with kids!  Children can send illustrated ideas to complete the phrase “May there always be…” and Jim will put them in a song with a video.  He’s making a new version each time he has enough drawings to make one, so this could be a fun thing to share with families, especially if you have Jim Gill fans!  Full directions to participate are on Jim Gill’s website–scroll down to the News section.   Here’s the first video to get you started.
