Dana Goodman-Fisher, an Emmy Award winning TV producer at ABC’s The View, brought Songs for Seeds to Westchester and Scarsdale in 2015 and, was so successful, and so popular with children and their parents, that she expanded the toddler educational music program to Rye Brook in 2016. That success has led to another expansion when Songs for Seeds opens its third location in Armonk next week.
Songs for Seeds features 45-minute classes led by a three-piece live band of teacher/musicians who encourage kids to sing, play instruments, and dance. At the end of class, the students are invited to sing with the band (karaoke style) and play the band’s instruments (guitar, keys and drums).

Each week the children experience music, instruments and language from a different culture. Magnetic art murals are created by the children during the sing-along of well-known nursery rhymes, magic tricks are used to practice numbers and counting and a wheel is spun to reinforce the names and sounds of animals. By mixing original kids rock 'n' roll with adult contemporary music, the band is sure to please little ones (and their adult parents!).
