“Voice Lessons To Go™,” the acclaimed vocal warm-up CD series that has sold over 100,000 CDs and downloads, has several CDs and downloads that make perfectly unique and memorable holiday gifts. Ariella Vaccarino, creator of Voice Lessons To Go™, guides listeners through a wide range of singing exercises, providing explanations and vocal examples to piano accompaniment.

The “Voice Lessons To Go” collection includes the recently-released “Vocal Repair,” a singing curriculum specifically designed for the tired, over-taxed, and recovering voice. Other CDs include “Voice Lessons To Go: v.1 Vocalize and Breath,” “Voice Lessons To Go: v.2 Do Re Mi Ear and Pitch Training,” “Voice Lessons To Go: v.3 Pure Vowels,” “Voice Lessons To Go: v.4 Stamina,” all of which are for teens and adults. “Sing Out Proud!”, meanwhile, is a popular singing CD for children. The CDs and downloads are available at voicelessonstogo.com, iTunes, Amazon, Target, Walmart, Barnes and Noble, Google Play, Best Buy and other popular e-tailers.

Everyone from karaoke fans to Broadway singers, from novices who don’t want to pay for voice lessons to parents who want a fun CD to entertain kids in the car, can enjoy and learn from Ariella. “Vocal Repair,” for example, is an inexpensive tool to help maintain and recover a healthy voice for singers, actors, teachers, speaker, dancers, and anyone who uses their voice for work or performance. The other CDs in the collection can help singers of all types improve their voice and technique.

“I am very excited to bring these CDs and downloads to singers during this holiday season,” notes Ariella Vaccarino. “It’s about giving unique gifts that are meaningful and special to recipients. Everyone knows somebody who loves to sing, and these lessons are the perfect gift!”

I received samples of Voice Lessons To Go Volume 1-Kids: Sing Out Proud! and also Voice lessons To Go Volume 1: Vocalize and Breath. I have to say I am quite impressed. I am finding that the Kids CD is very helpful with my son. He has some speech issues and our Pediatrician recently recommended Voice/Singing lessons would be helpful. I really am enjoying using this CD during homeschool. It actually helps with breathing and the vocal warm-ups are quite helpful. I really like Vocalize & Breath too but my favorite is the one for just kids.  I highly recommend!

Bamboo Pro™ supports contain Bamboo Charcoal Technology that offers self-warming properties. Unlike normal supports, it activates with your body heat to bring restorative warmth to your muscles, cartilage, and joints. Natural heat increases blood circulation, which in turn delivers proteins, nutrients, and oxygen to the affected area. This helps ease discomfort, relieve achy joints due to aging, enhance muscle performance, and recovery.

I was quite excited to have my husband try this product out. He had knee surgery awhile back and has knee pain.  He really likes this product and recommends it.  I like that it is safe and effective and easy to use. It does not remove all his pain. He currently has ongoing medical issues with his knee. But, I am thankful that this product does help relieve some of his pain and discomfort.

More important info:

Directions for Use:
For best results, wear the Bamboo Pro™ support directly on your skin. The support does not need to be tight or constricting for the bamboo charcoal to activate.

Care Instructions: 
Machine wash in cold water. Dry on gentle cycle, low heat. Bamboo charcoal is high in absorption so to release odors and pollutants it may have absorbed, place the product in sunlight or under a full spectrum light bulb once a month for an hour, or as desired.

Size Circumference: 

• Small: 11.5″ – 13″
  Medium: 12″ – 14″
  Large: 14″ – 16″
  X-Large: 16″ – 20″

How to Measure: 
Measure the circumference of your thigh 4″ above your knee cap.

Materials:
43% Bamboo Charcoal Viscose, 32% Polyamide Fiber, 17% Latex Elastic, 8% Polyurethane Fiber.

I Recently was given the opportunity to review one of Hallmark’s Keepsake ornaments and was told to pick  my top three favorite ornaments from the Dream Book. This one (above) was my top choice and I was thrilled to receive it!

Hark! Music Fills the Air! with the Peanuts gang is just perfect! I love that it is musical too! Just turn the knob on the back of the ornament to see the characters move and hear their version of “Hark!

This past week, my family had the opportunity to sail away…well…for 45 minutes on a Harbor Breeze Cruise. This really is a fun family thing to do! It’s both fun and educational as you learn fun facts about the port, Queen Mary, Sea Lions and more! You can also go on a longer cruise because they have Whale Watching Cruises too. This one is my favorite though because it is a nice calm and fun experience! They are open daily and what a great thing to do this holiday season!
