I'm still looking for more folks to review free pre-publication copies of my Kinder-Ukulele curriculum (a special ukulele curriculum for kids 5-9 years old). https://www.misscharlottemusic.com/

Ideal candidates to review the book would be teachers, parents or grandparents of kiddos between 5-9 years of age, who have access to a ukulele and time to spend trying it out with your kid(s).

If you offered to review it previously, and I didn't send you a copy yet, please remind me! I have a short list of names but I think I forgot to add a couple of people to the list.

I have about 20 unclaimed copies as of right now, so the first 20 to respond will get the free books.

A reminder: the Twelve days of Christmas start on December 25th. On the Twelfth Night (January 5th), it's traditional to go caroling (or wassailing) door-to-door and in gratitude, your neighbors should offer you some hot spiced punch with cream & brandy, or perhaps some figgy pudding.

This PSA brought to you by Miss Charlotte's Music and Dance.

Remember to drink responsibly and drive safely this holiday season!

Happy Holidays / Merry Christmas / Happy Solstice to all my neighbors! If you don't know me - I teach ukulele to kids and adults, as well as "Music for Tots", a super-fun music and movement program for the tinies. I also just published "Kinder-Ukulele", a special ukulele book for kids ages 5-9.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions, and I wish you and yours a delightful holiday season.
