Our family has experienced so many wonderful adventures in music together. From singing the National Anthem at the United Center for the Chicago Bulls and at Soldier Field for Las Chivas vs. America, to performing in Los Angeles for Nickelodeon’s America’s Most Musical Family t.v. show. We have many stories to share and invite you to join us!
Family Band Music Jam
When the children were younger, we would go to the park, run around, have a picnic, then break out the instruments for some musical family fun in the sun! Family jams are the best, and the kids love them.
Maya’s Quick Tips for Family Music Jams
If you want to have your own family jam you can make it really simple by using what you have around the house, like a closed salt shaker, or a little jar of sprinkles as an instrument. You could even go to your local music shop to buy some maracas, claves, bongos, or other fun instruments that are easy to use and start with!
Another tip is you don’t even have to own any instruments to jam because you already carry an instrument with you wherever you go. You can use your voice to sing! So go make your own family jam and sing, dance, play an instrument, or even just listen to the music together. Above all, just have lots of fun and enjoy!
