How to get started writing songs.

One of the easiest ways to get into the idea of writing a song is to take an existing song and change the lyrics. This is a technique I often use with my students and mommy and baby groups.

Here's a seasonal song I wrote a number of years ago for my son, to the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

Here comes ghostie in the night

He wants to give you a fright

With a sheet over his head

Stole it from your granny's bed.

You see him and he sees you

You're the first to whisper......boo
