The word aloha is much more than just a greeting---it has a deeper meaning that conveys cultural beliefs about how to treat others. This rhythmic original by Ruth Morris Gray celebrates the five traits of aloha, sung in Hawaiian, and then defines them in English. The two independent lines are a perfect fit when later combined. A few enthusiastic handclaps during the intro and interlude add excitement. Chord symbols are provided for optional ukuleles or sing with the island-inspired SoundTrax.

Kathi e Hill has done Christmas forward, and now, backwards! Instead of ending with the nativity, Christmas in Reverse starts at the manger, then rewinds to explain the significance of the events leading to the first Christmas. Teaming with co-writer Melody Morris (Fish Tales, Promise U, Christmas SOCCER Team) Kathie provides a wealth of musical settings and simple narrations for this meaty musical. And long before the nativity characters return to the manger, you will be touched (for the first or umpteenth time) by the significance of Jesus' birth. So if you think you've chosen your children's musical for this year, it's time to rewind and take a look at Christmas in Reverse. Ages: 2nd - 8th grades Speaking Parts: minimum 5 children / 3 - 4 Adults or children.

When the kids come dressed out for The Christmas SOCCER Team sign-ups, they quickly realize they have fouled out! This SOCCER stands for the Society Of Christmas Carolers Emergency Rescue, a team of senior singers who strive to save Christmas carols from extinction. Being good sports, the kids agree to share their songs about Jesus' birth and learn some of the SOCCER team's carols. This musical fusion finds the kids falling into the adult's southern gospel, black gospel and swing arrangements and the SOCCER team adopting the hip-hop, rap and bluegrass styles of the kids' music! The final score is a tie when the kids realize worshipping Christ is the goal of all Christmas music and become starters on The Christmas SOCCER Team to keep the carols of our faith alive and kickin'! Ages: 2nd - 8th Grades.

The country, western swing, bluegrass and rockabilly styles will enhance the setting and energize your choir while the storybook format allows for multiple narrators and simple drama. Best of all, Donkey Tales can be presented in full or as mini-musicals of four to five songs each. So quit horsing around...order Donkey Tales today!
