Kids just loved this. It held their attention from the very beginning all the way through to the end. They liked that their parents, and even their grandparents, could enjoy it with them. All the kids showed great self esteem after watching it. If obviously had an effect on them. "It made me feel like singing and dancing!" "It caught my attention right from the beginning." They were very excited about watching the DVD a second time - and one group played it a second time immediately after the first. Some said they would watch it at least 10 more times. "My friends would love it too. It makes you feel good." "He told us a story many times in song or in his actions."
Loved this. It offers a wonderful concert of Grammy award-winning artist, Bill Harley. His music and storytelling combine to make this DVD one that parents will enjoy as much as their children. In this DVD, he offers a vibrant and hilarious picture of growing up, school life and family life. The topic, about what growing up is like in real life, is very appealing to children. His take on what happens at different ages is very true and shows that times haven't changed all that much. The Varity of songs and stories is simply wonderful. The songs are easy to pick up and learn or to hum along to. His vocabulary is perfect for the target age. Bill is casually dressed but clean and neat. He plays with an acoustic guitar which is easy on the ears. He uses music to catch people's attention and then goes into acting. For example, he demonstrates how the substitute teacher taught them how to line up. Songs are a good length. Very very enjoyable. Definitely we would recommend this to parents.
This recording captures singer and storyteller Bill Harley doing what he does best: performing live in front of an all ages audience.
