Greetings!  My name is Cassie and I am a public librarian who is passionate about early literacy and aim to create books that are fun AND can be used as tools to help parents and kids. Many years ago when I had my daughter, all of my education flew out the window. I couldn't remember one single lullaby. I felt lost. I'm dating myself here, but the songs I turned to were TV show theme songs/music from my childhood: Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, Gilligan's Island. I used the themes and made up my own songs at 2am trying to get my dear one back to sleep. Familiarity is comforting. It didn't matter that I wasn't singing a "proper" children's song - I was singing and engaging with my child. Singing is one of the 5 early literacy practices that can help your child succeed in school, and one that many people struggle with! I have taken songs I created with familiar tunes and made them into books to encourage kids and parents to sing together and make up their own songs as well! Give them a try!
