Gan Shirim is a unique, 160-page songbook that includes sheet music for 70 original fun songs for children to sing, learn from, and enjoy. Also included are big-print lyrics for songsheets, background info about each song topic for adults, and teaching suggestions. There are songs about Jewish values, holidays, beginning Hebrew, and Bible characters, as well as "everyday songs" with a Jewish twist such as weather, colors, and friendship. There's something for all ages from preschool through elementary school. Every song is composed in a child-friendly singing range with a melody that children--and adults--will find appealing. Lyrics range from heartfelt to humorous. Each song in the songbook costs less than 22 cents, as does each mp3 (when purchased as part of the full album)--amazing value!
