My story: My son was non-verbal when he was a toddler. The only way we got through to him was creating songs and music. He learned quickly and so did millions of people around the world from my YouTube videos.

The last 12 years I’ve devoted my life to creating a complete curriculum of music for educators and parents to help their children learn through music including science, math, literacy, social studies and gross motor skills. Teachers should embrace technology and use it to their advantage.
