Capture Your Child’s Voice

*Quinn Singing Twinkle Little Star, Age 7

Music is a big part of your child’s life. They inherently connect and deeply understand it. Today we are honored to guest post over at Melissa & Doug and talk about why Music Matters.

This is a short family video of my little Quinn singing Twinkle Little Star as a toddler.

We often talk about capturing the gift of an ordinary day on film, but it is equally as important to capture your little one’s voice.

Hit the “memo” button on your iPhone as your child attempts to read a story.
Grab a short video of your little one singing. You won’t regret it.

When I compare the video to the photo above it is hard for me to admit my little girl is growing up. Quinn has always enjoyed singing so I didn’t think much of the footage when I took this video. Now, her toddler voice is absolutely precious.

We continue to make music a priority at our house. I often photograph or capture video of the girls “performing” their favorite songs. I am sure some day, in the not to distant future, I will look at these current photos and think “the girls look so young.”
