Music

We have three free gifts for you. We have recorded a collection of familiar songs and poems you can download.  We also have two songs from Dolly herself.

Why should we sing with babies? There is much research regarding the benefits, but first and foremost, it’s fun for you, the baby, and the whole family!  Singing soothes the baby when she is fussy.  It creates a bond with you and your voice.  Melodies, rhythms and rhymes prepare your baby’s brain for language. Singing high and low sounds develops listening skills.  Babies learn to focus and move with the rhythm. Babies feel safe when life is predictable.  Singing about routine activities helps them know what comes next.

All of this boils down to using your singing voice as a way to express love. Your baby doesn’t care if you’re a great singer.  They only care that you’re singing to THEM!
