There are 19 tracks altogether on this innovative CD designed to inspire creative movement in children. The first 10 tracks are vocal instructions set to the music of Mozart, and the final 9 tracks are instrumentals.
Although the directions in the songs are quite straightforward, the CD comes with suggested activities and instructions for each track. Track 1 is entitled Moving to Mozart (Warm-Up) and the lyrics direct the activities with Eine Kleine Nachtmusik K.525 - Allegro as the featured track. Caregivers and parents are instructed to allow children to interpret the movements as they please (let them "feel" the music). Lyrics include such lines as "Let the music move you, feel the melody tickle your toes, wiggle them around, then see where it goes.". In the second track, Mirror Moves, kids grab partners and "mirror" their friend's actions. I Have a Little Scarf helps to inspire kids' imaginations — their scarf (or ribbon, etc.) becomes a flag, a carousel, a veil, and even a tree!
Another activity focuses on gross-motor skills as kids jump and skip to the music and instructions. Children tap their fingers in different ways in an activity designed to increase fine-motor skills, and counting up to 20 is the focus of the 10th track.
Tracks 11 through 19 (all of which have suggested activities) are instrumentals and are perfectly suited as background music during art activities, quiet time, or play.
