The power of a song

Songs are magic for getting info into heads.  Reuel and I didn't even realize what the boys knew until they showed us!

Also, can't recommend Slugs and Bugs albums by Randall Goodgame highly enough.  We now own them all, know most of the lyrics (!), and enjoy rich fun and conversations because of them.  Highly recommended as a gift for young families!

My favorites are the Sing the Bible #1 and #2.  The kids might like 'Under Where' the best.  Great music and scripture that we all enjoy together.  Randall G. came to our church's family camp this summer for a performance--that's how we learned of him.  His cabin was near our cabin circle, and he came and played his guitar around the fire for a couple of nights.  It was fantastic to sing classic hymns to his accompaniment with all our friends...will be a long-held memory for me.  The slightly funny part is that he apparently didn't know he was coming to a campground when he arrived...he usually stays at hotels and performs at churches. Oops, message didn't get through his booking agent!  He had to borrow a sleeping bag from the pastor's son and our beach towel.  He didn't bat an eye, and seemed to have a great time.

Here's a clip from one of my favorites:
