Creative Music Room’s dynamic and original Rhythmic Tales are designed to familiarize students with basic music concepts by placing them in the context of highly entertaining stories and mini musicals featuring a cast of CMR characters that kids will come to know and love. These characters, all named after different musical figures or terms (like Moto Monkey, Basie Beaver, and Tuba Turtle), will capture students’ imaginations and become part of your classroom family!
