Classic Records from the Golden Age

audiobooks· elementary

11 Nov
     

the following is from the Kiddie Records site:

Introduction

Kiddie Records Weekly began in 2005 as a one year project devoted to the golden age of children's records.  This period spanned from the mid forties through the early fifties and produced a wealth of all-time classics.  Many of these recordings were extravagant Hollywood productions on major record labels and featured big time celebrities and composers.

Over the years, these forgotten treasures slipped off the radar and it became our mission to give them a new lease on life by sharing them with today's generation of online listeners.  Each week throughout the year we added a new recording and before we knew it, our one year project turned into three!  Although we will not be continuing beyond 2007,(updated: they started adding more content in 2009!) Kiddie Records Weekly will remain online and we will update the Bonus Records section every now and then.  

So whether you are hearing these records for the first time or reuniting with a childhood favorite from long ago, we hope you take great pleasure in your trip down memory lane!

    Thank you for reminding me of this site. It was one of my favorite sites. I love the old records. Just like I love old movies.

    This definitely is worth visiting. Three years ago, one of my sons downloaded quite a number of these to CDs, and created a “library” as his Nativity gift to his little sister. She was thrilled !

    Thank you so much for posting this! I’m a vinyl lover, and still have some of the old records I listened to when I was young. This gives me a great chance to share even more classic albums (more classic than the 1980’s stuff I have, lol) with my children!

Balancing Homeschooling while Working From Home

At times, well-intentioned advice suggests that dedicating an entire day to homeschooling leaves no room for a job during regular hours. This is not necessarily so. My husband and I owned a garden center for a few years while also homeschooling. After that, I had an online business while homeschooling. We did not “only work … Read More about Balancing Homeschooling and Working From Home – a Realistic Approach

making the transition from public school to homeschool

We did what you’re doing, or thinking about doing. Our eldest two went to public school in our little town, and it was just fine, we didn’t have any problems, but I missed them. Also, it was a hassle packing up the baby and toddler to commute the school kids from two different school locations, … Read More about Going from Public School to Home School? Here’s My Advice
