I like this bc it's bite-size for my son w special needs who is toddler-level but needs grownup music. Thank you!

Forte is hilarious! I love his roars and his lion jokes. I may not be a child, but I love children’s songs because of the happiness and excitement that you hear rather than all the negative stuff you hear in today's world. I love really old songs too, like 50s and 60s kind of songs. I also love songs from different countries such as Italy, Mexico and even indigenous songs like from Hawaii. but I think my favorite genre is children’s. I even find myself doing the actions, even though I myself am an adult and I don’t have any kids of my own. But these songs would be perfect to teach to my new niece. I have a suggestion for another episode. What if forte caught a cold or flu, and we used music to make him happy and calm again. I can already imagine him sneezing with the loudest and funniest of sneezes. Lol. ah, ah, aaaaa choooooooooo!!!!!!!! Lol. It would be so funny. but at the same time we would be like, poor forte. I hope he gets better. maybe you could use that as an opportunity to study crescendo and decrescendo. Or, you could play songs that sound happy and sad. You could use those to help display forte’s emotions when he’s dealing with this cold or flu. Maybe when he’s feeling sad, you could play something happy to cheer him up such as his favorite piece, the march of the lion, or, when he needs to sleep to regain his strength, you could play a softer more piano piece like the cuckoo, so that way, the kids can lull him into a very peaceful and calm sleep to help him on his road to recovery. if you wanted to, you could have children get their favorite stuff toy whether it’d be a lot or a teddy bear and they could pretend to help it sleep.

My littles and I love this podcast! Miss Elizabeth’s energy and excitement is contagious. My children delight in the creative way Miss Elizabeth presents classical pieces of music fun and digestible way.

My kids loveeeee this podcast in the car. Such a breath of fresh air because the quality is there and it’s consistently so good!

My almost 7 year old loves clap for classics, and so do I! It’s a wonderful introduction to lovely music that I wouldn’t know how to do on my own.

My 6,4, and 2 year old love to listen. It keeps them interested and wanting more. I love that these are so thought out for laying a solid foundation of musical fun and literacy. It has the songs and activities that keep my kids interested and then depth to keep me interested.

My 16 month old grandson loves to listen to Clap for Classics in the car while we run errands. It keeps him entertained and teaches him lovely music. We try to resisted to episodes at home with our instruments. He plays some during the talking parts, but I can tell he is listening because he starts dancing or playing his instrument as soon as the song starts.

This Podcast is excellent for before-bed exercise. It is also great for learning music theory. Before I found this Podcast, I thought music theory was boring. Now after the fun activities and ballets, I realize music theory is worth a deep dive into.

I’ve been looking for a classical music for younger kids, so many are geared toward older children. We’ve listened to two episodes and we are already huge fans! Thank you for making music so interactive and fun for preschoolers.

This podcast is amazing! We use it during our morning time and it’s a hit with all my kids ranging from 2-7. Thank you for making this amazing resource.

My four year old can’t get enough of this podcast! She is constantly asking for Forte podcast. She dances, claps and really engaged with this podcast and bonus it makes classic music such a joy for her, and this mama is learning things about music along with her!

My almost 2yo and I love this podcast; he literally requests it by clapping and pointing at our google home!

These podcasts are engaging, fun, and packed full of quality content. My two year-old loves it when we listen together—even if it’s just in the car. Highly recommend!

So much fun for kids - and their adults! We learn something every time. I love it!

Love this podcast for my 3 year old who is so interested in music! It’s fun and engaging. Thank you for the great episodes thus far.

I absolutely love this podcast. I am a classically trained pianist, but not a great teacher, so it has been fun for me to be able to introduce my children to classical vocabulary and music in a fun and lively way. Elizabeth is truly engaging and this podcast has been a fun addition to our routine.

My 4 year old son LOVES this podcast!! Thank you!!

I have been following Clap for Classics for awhile now and I am beyond excited for this podcast! I have already recommended it to at least two people because it is so good. It is a great introduction to music theory for my three toddlers (age 1,3,5). It teaches rhythm, tempos and dynamics, as well as introducing different composers and styles of music, both classical and modern. They are engaged and interact with the podcast the whole time. It is great for listening in the car or at lunch to keep them still at the table. It’s even fun for me! I cannot sing enough praises for this podcast!

I’m so excited about all that this podcast offers for my kids and I! This is exactly what I’ve always been looking for to help my kids gain an appreciation for music in a way that is fun, engaging, and full of amazing content!

I love that we can listen to it in the car, right after school, on our way home. It’s great to unwind and get home happy and with a musical spirit. The activities and the music are fabulous. My 5 year old says: “I love it! Forte the lion is fun and loud!”

My kids absolutely LOVE Clap for Classics! I hear them using the tunes, words, and activities they learned through Clap for Classics throughout the week and it is a wonderful tool for mommies too! I am nearly certain my four year old can clap to a steady beat because of Clap for Classics and they truly learn a lot WHILE having fun!

Oh my gosh, I love this!! What a GREAT way to introduce classical music to kids! I love the different voices for the different characters, and how interactive it is! If I could give it 6 stars, I would!

Love love love this podcast! The perfect way way to bring a little classical music education into your home or car! My toddler absolutely loves hearing Forte the lion and singing along with Miss Elizabeth.

My kids (5 and 2) and I love listening to podcasts, and this one is super fun. They love Forte the Lion, singing along and moving their bodies. I love the educational value, the classical music, and the songs that we’ll keep singing again and again.

We absolutely LOVE this podcast and Mrs. Elizabeth!! My Daughter loves Clap for Classics!

Great way to introduce classical music and vocabulary to young children. Love the musical selections and shorter format! Would be great to put on during car rides with children. Teaches children to listen without screens.

We’ve been subscribing to the clap for classics music course for a little over a year now. The content is always a hit with my daughter. This podcast is a new element to our musical enjoyment and my 2 year old loves that she has her own podcast to listen to. Children love music. It’s in their soul. The way Ms Elizabeth and Forte the lion bring music to life for children is a magical talent.

My grand daughter loves Clap for Classics classes and she and her mom are now loving the podcast. Ms. Elizabeth and her entourage encourage fun and musical learning. She is a great music teacher.

We are so excited about this new podcast! My 3 year old and 8 month old grandsons loved listening. The 3 year old loved marching like a lion and Roaring along with Forte and Charlotte! Amazing job Ms Elizabeth!!

Ms. Elizabeth and Forte the Lion offer up musical education in a fun and engaging way! As a mom of littles and a preschool teacher, I highly recommend this podcast to anyone looking to add a little music into their day! It’s the perfect length to keep the attention of your little ones. Parents, grandparents, caregivers, teachers … if you’re looking for your next favorite music podcast, this is it!
