Parents, teachers, pre-school instructors, and of course—kids—will be pleased to hear the long-awaited Educational Songs CD from the Lakota Language Consortium is now available. The CD features 15 classic children’s favorites such as: the Alphabet Song, BINGO, Days of the Week, Itsy Bitsy Spider, Twinkle Twinkle, and many more!
Introducing a child to the sounds and rhythms of Lakota is an important step in making the language important and setting them on a solid path of discovering their their language. All songs are sung in Lakota by leading speakers.
LLC scoured Lakota Country for the best singers and songs. With help from Ben Black Bear, Sandra Black Bear, Paulette High Elk, Verdelia American Horse, Wilmer Mesteth, Karen Little Wounded (LLC’s education coordinator) and LLC’s Jan Ullrich a great collection of favorite children’s songs has been put together.
Accompanying these singers is Kevin Locke “The First to Arise” on flute. Kevin is a preeminent player of the Native American flute, a traditional storyteller, and a recording artist and educator well known for his hoop dance, The Hoop of Life. Since 1978, Kevin has traveled to over 80 countries to perform. He is frequently cited as an ambassador of Native American culture to the United States and the world.
