Here's a whole bunch of instruments, books and other cool stuff that I use, and recommend!

UkuleleThese ukulele's are affordable and come in a variety of colors for your budding rock star to choose from! I love that they also come with a soft case, pics, strap, spare strings and a tuner! Everything your child needs to get started... except a knowledgeable teacher to guy them of course.

Book: I Love My White Shoes - Pete the CatThis book is one of my favorites, and clearly a favorite with the children too! Currently my most viewed book read on YouTube as well! Buy it on Amazon today!

Keyboard - for Kids!This is a basic electronic keyboard that is under USD$40, is powered by 6 AA batteries (so it doesn't need to be plugged in), that will keep you child engaged for hours! I always recommend a keyboard like this for preschoolers, as it stays in tune (as opposed to a uke or guitar), which will develop musical aptitude and pitch recognition. Keep it accessible to your child so they can explore it when they want to!
|
RecorderThis is the Nuvo Recorder+ and it's much easier and more fun to play than a traditional recorder. Due to it's unique silicon key system, the Nuvo Recorder+ enables beginners to progress more quickly which provides the inspiration to continue your child's musical journey!
It comes with a hard plastic case, and there are different colors to choose from! A great way to introduce a child to wind instruments (flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone etc...) |
20 Piece Percussion SetHere's a fun and colorful percussion set for your child! Featuring instruments such as a xylophone, egg shakers, maracas, tambourine/drum, bells, triangle, and more!!!
Great for developing fine motor skills, color cognition and musical aptitude. Thee instruments are smooth and safe (non-toxic wood and lead free paint). Perfect for babies and toddlers. |
BOOK: Skunka TankaOne of my favorite books to do with the kids!
Meet Tanka, the elephant and his friend Skunka. Say their names together and they SOUND LIKE DRUMS! Tanka, Skunka, Tanka, Skunka, Tanka Tanka Skunk! They have lots of friends for you to meet, so say their names to the Tanka Skunka beat! Lemurs, llamas, zebras, badgers, caterpillars, big GORILLAS and yakety, yakety yaks. The book takes the reader on a veritable roller-coaster ride of sights and sounds as animals leap and dance across the brightly coloured pages. Terrific fun to read aloud one to one with a small child, and an absolute riot for group activities. |
Yoto Audio PlayerSoon, I'll be releasing my debut children's album on Yoto Cards! So grab a Yoto Player so you can play it - no screen, no ads... just the sweet sounds of Mr. Simon and their favorite music, audio books and sleep sounds!
What is a Yoto Player? The smart speaker for kids that encourages independent, creative play through audio. So, that’s anything from stories to music, sleep radio to daily podcasts… even meditations or recordings of your own voice reading a favorite bedtime story or silly song. Why do parents love Yoto? Aside from nurturing the growing imaginations of kids all over the world, Yoto Players are celebrated because they have no screen, no microphone, no camera and no ads! They even have customizable timers, a room thermometer and features to help with the bedtime and morning routine. |
Unleashed Their Creativity and IntelligenceParents!! Are you interested in maximizing your child's potential? Apply these simple techniques in their first few critical years.
My good friend and fellow Aussie living in the US has developed a course that is designed to give information and instruction to parents! He firmly believes it can enable parents to help their babies and young children's brain develop quicker and stronger. It’s not hard, you don’t need to be a musician to do it! It's actually designed for adults that don't have any music experience or knowledge (and for those that do too!!! I learnt a lot doing the course myself.) Further benefits for the child can include a higher level of self-confidence, along with a generally happier disposition. It will help them with music, but it will also help them enormously with other life skills. Get this knowledge NOW before it's too late!!! The older your child gets, the more likely they're not going to benefit from their natural window of "Native Fluency".

The Melodica
This is one of my favorite instruments to take to my classes and have the kids play (they press the keys, while I blow air through the tube to make it work!) It's an instrument I had as a preschooler (although mine had rainbow colored keys)
Choose from different colors and know that your child is tuning their ears to the western harmonic series while on the go! Take it on holiday with you, in the car or in their bedroom... the melodica is a fun and educational instrument for ages 3+.
Choose from: black, blue (pictured), green, pink or red!
