Show Notes
I am introducing a new episode titling concept that is akin to how certain race horses are named. See, this episode contains pieces of previous episodes as well as new material. Thus, the episode title pays homage to that lineage to form the poetic phrase: "Hello Donkey Potato." Race horse names are often nods to their parents i.e. a horse named Waffle Toes may have been sired by Brekky Pie and Foot Fingers. I expect this innovation to spread rapidly throughout the world of podcasting. It is my gift to the industry...my legacy. But enough about the title, what fun music and games for kids lies within these 1s and 0s?
We begin with a Time To Move movement game called Bubble Bubble Pop. Kids will use their hands, fingers and claps to perform a dance that develops small motor skills AND big movement thrills. ✪
Nextly, we share a Noodle Loaf version of the Echo Song mega-hit, Down By The Bay. This was recorded when Joni was a good bit shorter than she currently is. Not to worry, I have adjusted the mic to accommodate her latest height. We've added our own punchlines to this song. How did we do? ✪
Who doesn't love a listening skill building game like Name That Sound? I don't want to give away any answers but let's just say you're going to need an extra pair of socks to play this one. ✪
A Tiny Song that is about a Donkey Farm and about how everyone is going there tonight. Not too much to add to that. ✪
We hope you enjoy our music and games for preschoolers, kindergarteners and early elementary age kids! It's like a music lesson for kids you can play at 1.25x speed.
I wrote a book!!!: ✪✪✪ FAMILIES GROW - an Amazon Best Book of the Month - by Dan Saks and Brooke Smart available from Penguin Random House ✪✪✪

More from Noodle Loaf - Music Education Podcast for Kids
Oh what fun we will have together in this episode. We've got movement, active listening, art, singing and lots...and...lots...of kazoo music.
It's that time of year again! It's also ALMOST that time of year again. Two great reasons to do some a cappella style vocal jamming using the names of different pasta shapes. What better way to learn the art of part singing? Here is more information about what musical fun for the whole family lies within this episode:
Noodle Loaf is excited to share a recent episode of the Kids Listen podcast Big Emotions: Kids Listen Mashups About Feelings featuring Noodle Loaf and our friends at Dr. Friendtastic and Power Dog Adventures. The episode is hosted by Abbe Opher & Kelly MacBride of Koala Kids. Each episode in the series gives you a taste of some other great kids shows to check out, and explore what it means to be human! "You can't beat that with a bat" - Black Sheep (a group that makes me feel joyful).
Welcome back to another episode filled with interactive music games delightfulness. Rhythm, pitch and movement are going to occupy your next ten minutes so take out your hair and put in your teeth for Noodle Loaf! Sorry, I'm never sure what to write here. It says "episode description." Maybe I should be more specific? Ok, this episode will contain the following opportunities for creative expression:
I hope you have your goofin' hat on because we are diving in the deep end of the joyous music giggle pool and we're gonna need hats? If you say so! Oh, yeah, also...Ziggy Marley is on this episode! He stopped by Noodle Loaf to help show how easy and fun it is to make up songs about just about anything, and tell us about his new book Pajammin'. We hope you like pajammin' too!
