Show Notes
If you like smoothies then you'll love this new episode of Noodle Loaf. It's got mangoes (rhythm games), bananas (singing) and freshly squeezed orange juice (mad-lib style story games). Press play and take a gulp!
Our Clap It Back game gives you and your family a chance to learn rhythmic phrases. Syllables, cadence, rhythm, tempo, beat...so many skills to glean from this game. It also incorporates a technique used in music classrooms and pedagogies like the Suzuki method. Things get tricky as the game goes on, so hold on to your smoothies! ✪
This Echo Song doesn't have a lot of words. Some songs don't need a lot of words to do what they need to do. Other songs (like Hurricane by Bob Dylan) need a ton of words. This is not that. The name of this song is "Sister Oh Sister" and it is meant to evoke feelings about the people in your life, after all. ✪
We recently found a half filled book of Mad-Libs on a neighbors' stoop. We had a lot of fun with it and it was exciting to see how different another families brand of hijinks felt in comparison to our own. This game is similar. It is called You Make The Story and your job is to add your own words to help tell the story. In this case you are opening up a pizzeria. Good luck with your new pizzeria endeavor! ✪
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 slurp up like a smoothie but without the brain freeze.

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!
