Food Songs for Kids

Nooshi is currently recording some new food songs for kids! Mmmm yummy! Childrens songs about food are so much fun. Nooshi's children's food songs will include songs about cheese pizza, han-gubers, waffles, hot dogs, and more.

What is your favorite food song thus far for kids? There is the famous 'Hot Dog!' song by They Might be Giants as well as the popular song about peanut butter and jelly called 'Peanut Butter Jelly Time' by Chipman & The Buckwheat Boyz. Kids love these songs. There is also that song about Waffles, entitled 'Do You Like Waffles?' by Parry Gripp.

Nooshi's first children's song about food was the 'Chicken Nugget Song', released the Summer of 2010. The song was promoted through simple videos on youtube and thus far is gathering views. The Chicken Nugget Song is a unique song that celebrated that kids favorite food.

New Short Happy Birthday Song


So, singing 'Happy Birthday' is sung millions of times a day. The original version of Happy Birthday is soooo simple and is easily sung in big and small groups. So what if you want to sing a new birthday song? A short and catchy one that groups can sing. Well, many restaurants make up thier own short and sweet songs that they sing for birthdays on request. Some of them are so funny and clever. However, they usually don't sing the original Happy Birthday Song because of the copyright. Us at home are not concerned with that when we sing it for birthday parties.

A few years ago, my mother made up a short and sweet birthday song that she called 'Your're Older Now Hooray'. The birthday song is under 20 seconds and is easily sung in small and big groups. In fact, every birthday we sing it to each other in the family. It is easy to learn. Below are the lyrics to 'Your're Older Now Hooray'.

Happy, Happy, Happy!!!! (Sing Happy one at a time and hold it for a simple 3 part harmony)
(Now in Unison)
Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy Birthday to our friend
Happy, Happy, Happy, It makes us want to jump and bend
It's your special day! Your older now hooray!!!

That's it. I challenge you to learn it. I recorded the song and it is available on Nooshi's birthday album on iTunes. It's actually the very first track on the album.

Nooshi loves soccer!



Nooshi congratulates Spain for their win against the Netherlands for the 2010 World Cup in Spain. Nooshi loves soccer. He created a soccer song just for the kids called 'Soccer Time'. The song just became available today on iTunes!!! Yeah. The World Cup may be over now, but the love of soccer will live on.

Nooshi used to play soccer when he was a kid. He played goalie for two quarters and forward for two quarters. His favorite position, however, was forward because he would get chances to score goals. After the game, Nooshi always enjoyed the ice cold beverages like pop and kool-aid that was served to the kids.

Now Nooshi gets to teach his little one-year old boy how to play soccer. Nooshi's son loves to play soccer. The soccer ball nearly comes up to his knees. His favorite word is 'football' which he uses for soccer. Listen to "Soccer Time!" Song by Nooshi on iTunes
