The Singing With the Stars
DVD is a series of star-studded performances with songs focusing on
encouraging children to feel good about who they are; boosting
self-esteem and building self-confidence. Many of the segments also
focus on task persistence, feeling proud, celebrating similarities and
differences, and labeling and expressing emotions. Songs range from
classics such as, “Furry Happy Monsters” with R.E.M. to the Emmy
Award-winning hit, “What I Am” with Will.i.am.
The DVD will also include a downloadable activity book for children and
musical activity tips for parents. If there aren’t enough music videos
for fans in this fun-filled DVD, a bonus 5-song CD will also be
included.
“Warner Home Video is thrilled to announce that Singing With the Stars
will join the Sesame Street DVD collection,” said Jeff Brown, WHV
Executive Vice President and GM of Non-Theatrical Franchise Marketing.
“Children and parents alike continue to learn and love with Sesame
Street, and we are certain families will get up and dance with this
DVD.”
