Singing and music making has long been known to make us feel good, but it can also enhance relationships between adults and small children in their care by creating channels of communication and building a repertoire of shared experiences. Using traditional children's songs from the UK and from around the world, Musical Bumps aims to share a love of music with the adults and young children who come along. Join in with nursery rhymes, finger rhymes, action songs and games, marching songs, and lullabies. Musical Bumps started just a few years ago with a weekly Mother and Toddler group in a village in Kent. It offers music classes for children from just a few months old up to and including their first years in school. In less than 10 years, this has now expanded to 20 franchises all over the country, involving thousands of young families. This CD "UP AND ABOUT - MARCHING SONGS" is the first of many that will be produced by the Musical Bumps team, each CD having a different theme.
