Toddler music
Musical toys make wonderful gifts but how do you know which ones are right for your kids? These toys offer more than just fun and entertainment; they are also one of the best kids learning toys available. But the challenge is to provide kids with age-appropriate toys that can challenge them and motivate them to engage in active play time. This article provides some facts to help you know how to buy the right musical toys for your kids from the baby years to school age years.
Musical toys come in various forms. From newborn babies up to teenagers, there is something to fit every child’s needs. For young babies, simple rattles and shakers are appealing. In the early years, the best kids learning toys are the ones that meet multiple needs with the same toy. For example, a toy can provide both soft plush characters with musical features, giving kids a new friend with a smiling face and a soft cuddly body that makes musical sounds when played with. Other toys combine musical elements into teething rings, interesting textures, squeaky parts, and colorful inter-active options. Look for toys with a variety of textures, colors, sounds, moving parts or lights. Babies and toddlers get more use from these multi-faceted toys because they meet different needs.
Like with any toys, there are safety considerations, especially with babies and toddlers. The ideal size is a toy that is all one piece, too big to be swallowed yet lightweight so they are easy to grasp. Avoid toys with small pieces that can pose a choking hazard. Even toys that are all one piece should be durable enough to avoid the risk of small pieces or buttons that could break off to become choking hazards. Since the little guys put everything in their mouths, the toys should have smooth surfaces. Wooden painted toys should use only lead-free paint.
Kids of all ages like toys they can interact with. Some musical toys encourage interaction by playing different tunes depending on how they are touched. For babies and toddlers, musical toys are available with flashing lights and other interactive options. For added benefits, look for toys that combine musical tones with color coded buttons which can help teach color recognition. Older babies and toddlers enjoy selecting their favorite songs by recognizing the appropriate buttons.
From about three years old, kids are ready to be introduced to small musical instruments. These classic kids learning toys introduce them to a variety of ways to make sounds, from rattling tambourines, clashing cymbals, clacking wood pieces, and vibrating triangles. Even though kids cannot read music, that is okay because many of these toys include color coded notes and pictures for early note recognition. Some musical toys have optional song sheets for kids who want to play music on their own. Melissa and Doug is a popular brand that offers a variety of wooden musical toys that provide excellent quality musical sounds and are specially designed for young kids.
For older children, toys begin to transition into expensive musical instruments, which are the ultimate kids learning toys. While younger children might not want to pick out a tune or follow notes, school-aged kids love to play solos. They readily learn the underlying math concepts of whole notes, half notes, quarter notes, and so on. Counting is also important to making the right tune. From a recorder or keyboard to guitar or violin, a lifetime of learning and enjoyment can lie ahead. To select the right instrument, parents should follow the child’s lead on taking up an instrument, as this is more likely to ensure commitment and all-important practicing.

Bass Drum Sounding Too Muffled?
I’ve had this Ludwig drum set for probably 8 years now. It is starting to wear down. My bass drum is sounding way too muffled though. When I hit it, its a THUD. I hear more of the pedal pad hitting the head than the actual drum.
Any help?
I’ve got a skinny pillow against the pedal side and a blanket in there too.
Change your skins. Not too cheap, but good for the sound.
Most people like muffled bass, i know i do… used to put pillows in mine.
Mic if its not loud enough.

Slipknot drums
How can I learn the blister exists on drums?
Im a 13 year old boy and im a beginner drummer.
Im going to perform at a live show,the song is going to be the blister exists by slipknot.
Anyone have some tips on how i can learn it faster?especially the double bass because its kinda fast for me.
The show is going to be next month but we are going to rehearse in about a week and i dont want to be embarrassed because i dont know it that much.
thanks
Apart from practice, listen to the song a lot and also look at drum covers by other people on -for example- YouTube. And I won’t lie, hardware i.e. more expensive double pedals will help improve your double bass speed. I mean, you can go much faster on a pair of Iron Cobras, for example, than a pair of Millenium double pedals costing less than 1/3rd of the cobras. Joey’s been drumming since he was 8, so don’t get over yourself! If you can’t play the double kick fast enough just play it half time, it’ll still sound pretty good.

Music for babies
Since the dawn of the age of the walkman, there have been studies on the effect of music on babies in the womb. Will it make him or her smarter? More musical perhaps? Although these studies are, excuse the pun, still in their infancy, playing music to your baby is a simple and easy way to form a prenatal bond.
Although your baby’s ears don’t completely develop until the fifth month, fetuses respond to noise before that, which has led some researchers to believe there’s more to hearing that the ears.
There has been no proof supporting claims that listening to music in the womb will increase your child’s intelligence, but an interesting UK study has shown that it will increase memory. Babies that listen to music in the uterus respond to the music played for up to a year after birth. This shows that the fetus is capable of creating memories will still in the womb.
Using prenatal stimulation helps to connect you to your child before birth, so that the baby will be able to communicate. Playing familiar and soothing sounds, or even singing a simple lullaby will put your child at ease, and provide a grounding point after birth.
Amniotic fluid is a great sound conductor, so your baby will be able to hear you and your music just fine. Turning up the sound too much can disturb the fetus, so try leaving your stereo as background noise, or turning the volume down on the headphones if you’re planning on placing them on the belly. It’s not yet the time for sleepless nights; try not to over stimulate the baby with too much noise.
When choosing music for your baby to listen to, keep in mind that repetition is key. Choose anything you enjoy listening to, as your baby will benefit from the hormones you produce when you’re happy. Beethoven and Mozart are always favorites, but you can listen to anything from Madonna to traditional African drumbeat music, as long as there’s enough repetition to increase the chances of memory production. Mixing up the types of music helps diversify your baby’s tastes, and activates different areas of the brain. Baby Einstein offers a line of classical music CDs that you and your baby can enjoy together.
Singing a lullaby to your baby is a great opportunity to make a lasting connection. The baby will sense your mood, and respond accordingly.
Additionally, the baby will learn to recognize your voice, which will increase your bond after birth. It has been proven that babies can recognize their parent’s voices, which creates a sense of familiarity postpartum. Babies that have been sung to in utero frequently sleep easier than babies with no prenatal stimulation, as the parent’s voice is comforting.
Use moderation when stimulating your baby. You can overwhelm the fetus by playing music too frequently. Take your own feelings into consideration.
If you’re tired of hearing the same song over and over, your baby might be tired of it too. Make bonding a special time for you and your baby.
