Introduce your toddler to music
Great Dad
Be spontaneous and break out into song and dance once a while. Start your kids off with the piano as there is no special fingering that they need to master. Toddlers love reggae music and songs with a bit of narrative. Buy lots of that stuff for their listening pleasure. Keep music as an integral part of your child’s life. Remember also that you have a choice over what kind of music your child listens to. If you don’t want to hear Barney or Raffi don’t buy their music or put on their TV shows.

Dave Kubiak owner of The Bluebird said he likes to put on all types of shows including bluegrass hip-hop and rock and The Wailers will fit into the classic reggae category. The Wailers originally formed in 1969 with Bob Marley and four other members including Aston ?Family Man? Barrett who taught Marley how to play the guitar and serves as the current musical director of the group. ?The reggae music is the international voice of the people? Barrett said. It can be understood by everyone and carries a message of roots culture and reality. ?Stephen Stuempfle executive director for the Society for Ethnomusicology said The Wailers were the leading force in the globalization of Jamaican reggae music. ?I think one of the things that is interesting is that reggae started off as a local Jamaican music and reggae began a global art form? Stuempfle said.
