I just wanted to send out a little reminder about Billy’s Podcast 17. If you have not listened yet come on over and check it out. This podcast will teach children the letters sounds of (A-I) as they sing along with Billy and his pals from the Candy Appletree Woods. Kids will also learn the parts of a house as they make a list. The kidlets will be sure to have a smile as they learn to count by fives. You can also get free printable worksheets to go along with each segment. You can listen right on you computer or download to your iPod. If you subscribe on iTunes you will get updates automatically. It doesn’t cost a thing so you have nothing to lose.
We are currently working on Podcast 18. We will have it ready for you to enjoy around Sept. 5. Maybe a little sooner.
Until next time…
Keep Smiling, Singing, and Learning

Yuk! Wash Those Dirty Hands
Proper hand washing can help control the spread of germs and keep you healthy.
I was on Twitter and noticed a mom blogger momof2boyswifeof1 had a review and contest going to win some free SoftSoap that is perfect for kids. This made me think about a podcast Billy Gorilly did awhile back teaching kids about washing hands, so I thought it would be a perfect time to share the washing hands part of the podcast. Kids can listen and learn.
Click Link to listen Billy Gorilly teaches children how to wash their hands
You can download a hand washing tip guide here. It is in .pdf format. I’m sorry but the whole podcast is no longer available.
I hope this little bit of information helps you help your children learn about proper hand washing. I would love to hear your stories on how your get your children to wash your hands

This post doesn’t need to say much. A young girl playing taps on the trumpet like I have never heard before. You just have to watch and listen. Trumpet is a tough instrument to play, this was beautiful.
