Zin! Zin! Zin! A Violin: A Video Collection for your Aspiring Musician!



Zin! Zin! Zin! A Violin
by Scholastic Storybook Treasures...Definitely to be Treasured!


Your aspiring musician or performer is going to love the latest video collection by Scholastic Storybook Treasures - Zin! Zin! Zin! A Violin.  It is recommended for children ages 4-6.

We had the pleasure of previewing the video collection and my son enjoyed each of the 15 stories in the collection. A surprising round of clapping came when Aretha Franklin even sang!  I clapped right along with him and loved that he could appreciate her voice.

The company describes the videos as "THE YOUNG ARTISTS COLLECTION is a unique, new DVD set that will have them singing, drawing and learning all summer long!  Beautifully packaged with vibrant art from the best-selling story Zin! Zin! Zin! A Violin, the 3-disc collection features animated adaptations from 17 award-winning and beloved books, narrated by celebrities such as Zach Braff, James Earl Jones, Mary Beth Hurt and a singing performance from Aretha Franklin."

I am giving this a BIG THUMBS UP!  My son is a handful on days that he cannot go outside but this has had him completely entertained during our very rainy summer here in Chicagoland.  He has even adopted some new dance moves!  

Thanks to the PR team at Scholastic for allowing us again to preview your latest educational and rewarding video collection. Applause!

I agree that the DVDs are an excellent introduction into the world of music and art. It provides education as well about some of history’s most influential leaders.  The collection features stories that have won dozens of awards including the prestigious ALA Notable Video, Andrew Carnegie and Caldecott Awards, such as: Art, I Like Me, The Dot, Ish, Norman the Doorman, Wallace’s Lists, Zin! Zin! Zin! A Violin, Musical Max, The Star-Spangled Banner, Keeping House, Patrick, Apt. 3, John, Paul, George & Ben, Johnny Appleseed, Little Tim and the Brave Sea Captain, Madam President and Henry’s Freedom Box: A True Story from the Underground Railroad.  The specially-priced set also includes Scholastic’s innovative read-along feature, which highlights the words as they’re read, allowing the child to follow the narrator and promote an early love of reading.

Well done!
