24.01.2022 There hasn't been much rain here in Brisbane for the past few weeks so to remind you of the joy of jumping in puddles here is a little song I made up as my children were playing in the rain a couple of years ago. It's called 'Make My Rainy Day' and I hope to record it on an album of children's songs some day soon.
19.01.2022 Who's played Peekaboo with their baby? It's a game that absolutely delights babies and toddlers and helps us share those very special giggles with our little ones. It also helps babies understand the concept of object permanence - that even when you cannot see an object (or mummy/daddy) it is still there. There is so much wonderful learning involved in this activity and when you add singing, it makes it even more special!

16.01.2022 Since having your baby have you had any of these thoughts I can’t sing, I sound terrible or I can't read music I don’t know the words to nursery rhymes or I know music is important but I don’t know how to do music with my baby.. If any of these thoughts have crossed your mind then I want you to think about this instead. How does music make you feel? Happy, even when you're sad? Calm, even when you're frustrated. Indestructible, even when you have been knocked down? ...The power of music is too amazing not to be shared with your little one. No matter what your voice sounds like - yours is the voice that your baby loves best. And you don't have to be a music expert to do music activities with your baby at home. That's why I created The Bubble Box 8 week online program, to support you in bringing the joy of music to your baby at home. http://www.thebubblebox.com.au/ See more
12.01.2022 A huge welcome to any new users of the Bubble Box! I am often asked the question 'when can I introduce my baby to music?' Quite simply, it is never too early to introduce your baby to music. You can include music in your baby’s day to day routine right from birth, which really does give them a wonderful start in life. The benefits for your child are immeasurable from brain and language development to physical co-ordination to musical skills. Sharing the joy of music is also a special way to bond with your little one. You don’t have to be a ‘music expert’ to do music activities with your baby. Click through to learn five easy music activities for babies - from newborns through to toddlers - which you can do at home. http://www.thebubblebox.com.au//5-fabulous-music-activiti/
11.01.2022 Just 3 years old... but that is a big talent!!!
10.01.2022 I've just uploaded 'Bubbles Everywhere' to my Youtube channel. I wrote this song and sang it with my girls when they were babies. Sing along and lift your baby gently up and down. The actions and the lyrics will help teach your baby the words 'up' and 'down'.
10.01.2022 The Bubble Box community is growing internationally! I am very pleased to be involved as a speaker in an online event in Russia happening right now called the 'Play English Conference'. This conference is all about teaching English to young children and as many of you who've read my blogs and posts about music before already know....music is an amazing teaching tool for young children. Musical activities are the perfect way to teach a foreign language as they help to prepare ...the ear and brain for sound, exercise the brain building neural pathways and connections (which is great for all learning) and they are a fun way for children to learn! I will post more about this later with some snippets of my video presentation. But for now I just want to say thank you to Daria Rudnik for inviting me to be a part of the conference and to extend a big welcome to all the parents from Russia who are joining The Bubble Box!

02.01.2022 Oh dear... small problem with this packaging!
01.01.2022 Spring is here (in Australia!) and so are the bees. Our backyard is abuzz with them as they happily suck pollen from the clover. Oh what amazing and important creatures bees are...which is why I adapted the original version of the rhyme 'I'm Bringing Home a Baby BumbleBee' so that poor baby bumblebee doesn't get squished!!! This is a fun rhyme with actions you can do with your baby...perhaps after a lovely Spring visit to the park. https://youtu.be/Dn3RQqb0sSw
