thoughts on "gateways (book)" and "come follow me (CD)"

[titania8]

i'm shopping and came across this book, gateways, and this CD, come follow me, and wondered if anyone had any input/experience with either. i'd like to start adding some music and rhythm to our days but seriously don't know where to start. thanks for any info you can give me.

I have purchased a few songs from the CD through iTunes and my turned-6-today-year-old loves it. We can go for long periods of time without listening to it and she still sings the songs.

Though I know that recorded music isn't really Waldorfy... We also enjoy Rachel Buchman and Sarah Pirtle, which also came from iTunes.

we do not have the CDs in the OP.

however we do incorporate singing and music into our rhythm, we listen to a lot of putumayo cds.... i also have a book of childrens songs that I sing from and teach them songs on the instruments with.

WE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the cd and listen to it often. It's one of the few 'children's music' cd's I can stand for more than 1 minute.
