PRAISE POWER FOR KIDS.INSPIRING, EDUCATIONAL, AND FUN!!! Music teachers and choir directors had a profound effect on Joanne and Carol and became role models as they encouraged and inspired their pupils. The same is true, today, as talented teachers and choir directors look for material that is inspiring, educational, and fun! Praise Power For Kids is such a book! During their years as Children and Youth Music Directors, Joanne and Carol saw how well children responded to a variety of musical activities. Praise Power for Kids includes songs that have Handbells, Choir Chimes, and Carl Orff percussion instrument parts to be played by the children. These instruments are a great asset for all kids, but especially for those who don't enjoy singing. Praise Power for Kids also includes two songs with signing, two songs with easy dance steps, and two songs that have optional flute parts. Several songs will make good choir anthems. An Advent song can be included in the church service and sung by the congregation or choir. Home Schoolers, Christian Schools, and Sunday Schools will find songs that are fun to sing as they teach Christian concepts and Bible stories. The songs are written in styles that are appropriate for specific age groups, (K-6), and are labeled as such; thus saving time for the teacher. Through their experiences as busy teachers, Carol and Joanne recognized that it would be helpful to have suggestions of how to present and enhance the songs as they are taught to the children. An activity page that is with each song provides these suggestions. We hope that you will be able to use some of these ideas.or maybe they will inspire you with ideas of your own!
