This is because his graduate studies in child development have convinced him that family play is more important to young children than music alone….whether the music is classical folk or rock and roll. Each of Jim’s presentations is an active sing-along and clap-along. He bangs out energetic rhythms on his banjo while everyone claps jumps dances and even sneezes along. The program is filled with songs and stories from Jim’s award-winning recordings and books for young children. Jim’s true art is to create a joyful musical experience for children and parents together.
