Songwriting for Kids: Home

"It is true that even as a little girl, when I thought of the future I always thought of myself as a songwriter."
Carrie Jacobs-Bond


Hip Hop Speaks to Children
I'm excited to announce that my song "Long Track Blues" is included in a New York Times Bestseller book/CD edited by Nikki Giovanni. Listen to an NPR story about the book...including a clip of "Long Track Blues."

SAVE THE DATE! 2010 Summer Workshops will be held during the weeks of July 12th (SFK Vol. 1 and Fiction) and July 19th (SFK Vol. 2 and Poetry). More information will be available soon. In the meantime, you can read what kids and parents have to say about the summer programs at the Review Page and listen to traditional songs & other class songs in the LISTENING ROOM.

Join me in the Listening Room to listen to and read about some traditional American songs. Or stop by the Activity Room for songwriting assignments and activities, and to enter the I Wrote A Hit Song! contest. You can visit the Photo Gallery and check the Calendar to find out when a Songwriting for Kids workshop will be happening near you. And please don't forget to sign the Guestbook!

If you are a parent or organization who would like to host a workshop, you can learn more about our offerings here.

Thanks for visiting...now let's go make some music!

With love,
