Good Morning - Spring is in the air
I am happy that I am Covid Free.
Freedom to do the things that I love to do,
Like writing these broadcasts.
So many of you are on Spring Break, getting ready for the special holidays and time to be with your family. Time to spend with your family and children.
Today I dedicate this broadcast to songs sung by families. Hope you enjoy it.
A Million Dreams - A Daddy Daughter Duet
"A Million Dreams" is a song performed by Ziv Zaifman, Hugh Jackman and Michelle Williams for the film The Greatest Showman (2017). It is the second track from soundtrack of the film, The Greatest Showman: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, released in the same year. This song is one of the five songs to be sung at the Northern Concert taking place on the 23/5/2022. This is going to be a huge event with many schools participating and over 2000 pupils singing songs that they have been revising over the past few months. This last week I visited a school in the North, I was welcomed by children singing with puppets, and I finally met Easy.
You can check out the Easy Channel here with Asnat Lumer. You will find lots of videos with Easy the Puppet and more for your elementary school children.
Our next duo sang on the Ellen Degeneres show. Ellen welcomed Nick and his 4-year-old daughter Sienna, who went viral after posting a cover of “Señorita” by Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello. The two explained what it was like to have their video reposted by the pop stars, then they performed the hit song. Too cute not to share.
My suggestion to you is to find time to sing with your children for amazing quality time and fun. And you will be singing in English which is an added bonus.

Claire Ryann and Dad sing “You’ll be in my heart” from Disney’s Tarzan
My heart just melts watching them.
I encourage you to look for other videos of the suggested performers mentioned above. Some real magical stuff as the children grow older.
Game Time
Have a look at this game - Guess the song. Perhaps you can play similar games too.

Musical Joke of the Week
My girlfriend is leaving me because of my obsession with Eighties music.
Such ingratitude. When I first met her she was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar.
Stay tuned for more 80’s jokes
Digital Tool of the Week
USTAR
U-Star🌟 is a unique program that aims to build students’ speaking skills, at the pre-foundation and foundation levels, through take-home video projects. Comprised of 5 projects per grade level (3rd thru 6th), the program incorporates a variety of engaging topics which are recycled and spiraled throughout the students' learning experience in elementary school.
Finally a father son duo from “Britain’s got Talent” 12 years ago. Still a great one. There is movement and dance and it is very entertaining to watch.
Enjoy the weekend and have a Shabbat Shalom.
