Halloween

Halloween Video-Palooza

October 31, 2011

Happy Halloween! It’s a brisk but beautiful October day where I live — perfect trick-or-treating weather, for sure. I had a chance to see lots of cute kiddos in their costumes over the weekend, and can’t wait for all the Facebook pics to start appearing on my news feed this evening. I’ve written lots of [...]

Friday Fave: Sensory-Friendly Trick-or-Treating

October 28, 2011

Earlier this month, I was lamenting how much I would miss seeing my former students all dressed up for Halloween. I was also feeling a little bummed over not being able to pass out candy to trick-or-treaters, because I’d be providing music therapy and lessons on the evening of Halloween. However, I’m feeling much better [...]

Halloween Song Sale!

October 24, 2011

Halloween is still a week away, which gives you plenty of time to share a few spooky (and not-so-spooky) tunes with your students or even your own children. I’ve gotten plenty of use out of my Halloween song collection throughout the month of October, and wanted to make it readily available to you — which [...]

Sunday Singalong: Purple People Eater

October 23, 2011

Every October, I’d go to each classroom at my former job brimming with excitement about the new Halloween songs I’d written for my students. They always went over well. But inevitably, at the end of each class I’d hear, “Can we sing the ‘Purple People Eater’ song?” Mind you, it was usually (but not always) [...]

Sunday Singalong: Costumes on Parade

October 16, 2011

One of the things I’ll really miss this fall is seeing all of my former students at The Hope Institute dressed up in their Halloween costumes, parading around the school. And I’ll be working away during trick-or-treat time this year, so I will just have to live vicariously through Facebook — for not only my [...]

Today at Listen & Learn Plus!

October 15, 2011

I was going for “spooky” when I wrote the song “Orange and Black” last October. Well, as spooky as you can get when it’s intended for young-ish children, that is. And hey, a song is always better when you can throw in colors, spelling, and visual references. As I was recording it, the song took [...]

Sunday Singalong: Ugga Bugga Boo

October 9, 2011

Okay, okay…so this song really has nothing to do with Halloween at all. It is, however a Listen & Learn oldie! I think three years qualifies, as such, don’t you? When I went digging through the archives to find my original post, I couldn’t believe it how long it has been around. The original moves [...]

Today at Listen & Learn Plus!

October 8, 2011

You know the easiest way to tell that Halloween is approaching? Just walk through the aisles of any Walgreens, Target, or grocery store — they’re full of candy! I’m a bit of a candy-holic myself, so it’s always tempting to pick up a bag or two of treats…you know, for the trick-or-treaters :) Today’s resource [...]

Sunday Singalong: Pumpkin, Pumpkin

October 2, 2011

For someone who isn’t the biggest fan of Halloween, I sure have written enough songs to make it appear otherwise! This is one of my older tunes — it’s been around for a few years, but I still like to pull it out from time to time. It seems to be pumpkin weekend here on [...]

Today at Listen & Learn Plus!

October 26, 2010

I’m always a bit reluctant to admit that aside from rewriting the words and title of Halloween Stew, I’m not the mastermind behind it. Thank you, Hap Palmer, for writing such a great Halloween song (originally titled “Witches’ Brew”) all those years ago! I had to share one last spooky song before Thanksgiving tunes take [...]

Orange & Black Are All Around

October 25, 2010

During this last week leading up to the 31st, I’m squeezing in as many Halloween songs as possible — both here and with my students.  “Orange and Black” is one I wrote recently and have been singing all month. Since so many of the classrooms are decorated to the nines for Halloween, we play our [...]

Sunday Singalong: I Like Halloween

October 24, 2010

The title of this post is a bit deceiving, because as I’ve stated — oh, a thousand times or so — I don’t really like Halloween at all!  But I put on a happy face for my students this time of year, and sing “I Like Halloween” with plenty of (believable) enthusiasm. Lisa Casciola, MT-BC [...]

Peanuts Pumpkin Carols

October 20, 2010

I have a Halloween tradition with one of my classrooms at school, and that is singing Peanuts Pumpkin Carols the week leading up to the big day.  What are Peanuts Pumpkin Carols, you ask?  They are a group of cleverly penned Halloween songs set to the tune of traditional Christmas carols. So “Deck the Halls” [...]

Today at Listen & Learn Plus!

October 14, 2010

Here’s another Halloween song for the ghouls and goblins of Listen & Learn Plus! I first shared it here at Listen & Learn (along with an adorable picture of two little girls from my Church Mice class in their costumes) last October. This isn’t the last Halloween song I have up my sleeve…there are more [...]
