Land Of The Silver Birch With Braylee's 1st Grade Class, Using My Rock-iT Barre Guitar Chord Device :)

I feel so lucky that I am now able to play at the elementary schools with my grandkid's classes.  My Rock-iT Barre invention has helped me so much!

This Little Light Of Mine, By Lincoln & Taivan using the Rock-iT Barre Guitar, Ukulele, Banjo and Other Stringed Instrument Device (My Invention:)

This Little Light Of Mine, By Lincoln and Taivan using the Rock-iT Barre on the baritone ukulele and my guitar (my new invention to play guitar easily).  They just learned how to play earlier that day, and came back to playing again.  This time, they wanted to try playing with the instrument on their lap.  I put the stickers for the chords under the 1st few strings on the fret board, facing them, so they could see the chord letters easily.  

I also opened tuned to a D chord, which I consider a "Simplified Method" of playing the Basic Rock-iT Barre.   They are so fun to hang out with!  Thanks boys :)

ABC Song by Gregon and Lincoln in the car, VERY FUNNY TO WATCH :)

Gregon and Lincoln on the Alphabet Song.  Gregon gets angry, Lincoln feels bad, then forgets he is supposed to be angry and smiles, then remembers and tries to pout.  VERY CUTE.

I'm Going To Leave Ol' Texas Now

I learned this song in 2nd grade.  My teacher played the guitar, and taught us a lot of fun songs.  She was one of the main reasons I ever started playing guitar, and all the songs she taught us were great.

This was a first time through for this group-my nephews, friends and brother.  I was down visiting, and this was really a treat to get to play and sing with them!

This song is in the key of D, and A is the only other cord in this song.  One person sings the first line and holds it out, and the group repeats after them.  It is easy to do around a camp fire, or a group where no one knows each other songs.

I'm Going To Leave Ol' Texas Now


Chords and Lyrics for I'm Going To Leave Ol' Texas Now

D
I'm going to leave….. (echo), Ol' Texas now…….
                         A                                        D
They've got no use……., for the longhorn cow……

They've plowed and fenced…….   My cattle range…….
                          A                                   D
And the people there……..    Are all so strange……

I'll say adios……  to the Alamo…………
                      A                               D
And turn my head………   toward Mexico………

I'll take my horse…….   I'll take my rope…….
                   A                             D
And hit the trail……..   Upon a lope………..

Spider's Web, Quick Record for Learning

"Spider's Web" is a favorite of all girl's camp goers.  This was recorded quick, the two separate parts, so that my friend Sue could review for girls camp coming up this week.

I will post with the parts combined when I get a few of my daughters together.

3 Year Old Child's Version of Row Your Boat by 3 of my Grandsons

Grandpa and I were with Cooper, Taivan and Lincoln on Grandpa's trailer at the garden, eating lunch.  They grabbed hold and started turning and singing Row, Row, Row, Your Boat.  This is after they had sung it a few times, and I had time to grab my phone and record it, so they weren't quite as enthusiastic, but very fun.  Watch far enough into it for the fun part.
