One of the great pleasures of blogging is meeting wonderful fellow bloggers like Debbie Clement, a teacher, musician, author/illustrator and performer. What doesn’t she do?!
In celebration of National Teachers’ Week which kicked off yesterday and National Teacher Day today, I wanted you to meet her! Her company, Rainbows Within Reach, is now launching it’s 18th year of children’s Arts programing.
I thought her video is perfect for today!
Her concerts have a unique spin. It’s sing-along/read-along concert fun while introducing the sign language using her picture books in the process.
Debbie’s Ditties for Little Kids CD by Debbie Clement
The collection of my songs are gathered onto CDs known as “Debbie’s Ditties.”
Clement is a songwriter/performer who has entertained children across the country with her “Debbie’s Ditties for Little Kiddies,” which focus on positive affirmations.
Though “You’re Wonderful” was born from her work with children with special needs, its powerful message is appropriate for everyone, recognizing that each child is wonderful and has special gifts.
The book’s illustrations are bold, graphic quilts and the musical score with all versesand guitar/autoharp chords is included. Also featured are motions for signlanguage and a CD with both a vocal and instrumental version of the song.”
