Spirit Week 2016: Prizes, Fun, and Celebration!

*Spirit Week is over, but it will be back each March! 
Be watching every mid-March for more ways to win*
 
Spirit Week March 14-18, 2016
Spirit Week is our way of celebrating the music-making, class time fun, and success of all Let's Play Music and Sound Beginnings students, families, and teachers!  We revel in sharing memories, photos, and videos of our musical journey.  So, join us in our big annual celebration!

3 Steps to Connect
Of course, everyone wants to know about the contests! We always have great prizes for you, and this year we have a contest each day.

In order to win prizes, there are three first steps to take to help you get connected and be eligible, and you can do them now. No need to wait! Maybe you've already done these:

1. Like our Facebook Page HERE
2. Subscribe to our Blog HERE
3. Follow our Instagram feed HERE (@shelle_solfege) 

Free Shirt Fridays
Who likes waiting? We don't! To help you get dressed up for Spirit Week, we're giving away a free shirt from our Etsy shop every Friday leading up to Spirit Week.  To enter, simply leave a comment (one per post) to one of our Facebook or Instagram posts. We'll randomly pick a commenter to win! 

You don't have to be a SB or LPM family yet to win- just someone who likes t-shirts.




Daily Contests
Sound Beginnings families are included in every contest, too. This is your chance to share your spirit with all your friends- and win amazing prizes while you do!  You can begin entering the contests NOW, and winners will be randomly chosen each day during Spirit Week.

ALWAYS: Gain multiple entries into the GRAND PRIZE by entering the daily contests and by tagging friends.  Post any time, just get it up before each evening when we draw winners.  Use #letsplaymusic or #soundbeginnings in addition to the specific contest/daily hashtag.

You will always post to your own Facebook and/or Instagram feed. Be sure posts are public so we can find them! You double your chances when you post to both Facebook and Instagram!

 

MONDAY: #LPMlove Tell everyone what you love about Let's Play Music or Sound Beginnings! 5 Winners will receive the new CD from Piano Guys.

TUESDAY: #LPMshirt Post a photo of your child proudly wearing an LPM or SB T-shirt. 5 Winners will get a sing-along storybook.

WEDNESDAY: #LPMvideo Post a video of your child performing or practicing on the bells or piano! 5 winners will win the Beethoven's Wig 2 CD.

THURSDAY: #LPMclass Post a photo of your entire class, or your child doing something fun and active in class. One winner will get an entire set of pitch pipes to take back and share with the whole class!

FRIDAY: #LPMguy We have a new logo! It still looks like a jumping child, but with a new style.  What should we name that guy!? Leave a comment on the "Name our Guy" post (link coming) with your child's idea for the jumping guy's name.  One winner receives a t-shirt and the glory of finally naming that guy!

GRAND PRIZE: $500 CASH To enter, simply enter any or all of the above contests and be sure to do the first 3 steps of connecting. Winner does not have to be a Let's Play Music or Sound Beginnings student.

2016 Updates

Prizes, contests, and celebrations of those beautiful children gave you plenty to smile about- but there's more! This fall all of our classes will be using new and updated materials. I'm so excited! Check out what's changing (images coming soon):
  • All years have FREE digital downloads included with any CD purchase. You love listening to your LPM music on your ipod, so we make it easy!
  • Accompaniment tracks are included for every song in the 2nd and 3rd year songbooks.  Keep your ipod dock or CD player near the piano so your student can play along to these helpful tracks!
  • Homework and practice tracking have an improved look in the booklet. Now it will be even easier and cleaner!
  • New songs and activities will be introduced. We've got some good stuff for you, with easy-to-learn lyrics and games that reinforce theory concepts. Come to class and find out what's new.
  • Re-recorded songs with new voices and instrumentation make this newest CD release sound fresh and fun. You'll hear the old favorites and love their new sound!
  • Coloring books for each puppet show mean kids will have even more classical-music immersion and play.
  • 3rd year rhythm cards are a perfect addition to the 3rd year memory cards.  Students can play with and learn their rhythms in lots of new ways!
  • Spiral-bound songbooks for 2nd and 3rd year means they will stay open at the piano more easily.  Less hassle for everyone!  
Enjoy Spirit Week everyone!

$100 For Our #LPMGrads

Hey, there Let's Play Music graduates! WHAT are you up to these days?  Perhaps the answer is...

You're busy WINNING $100!

Really, we want to know where you've gone.  Are you playing another instrument (violin? drums? trombone? piano?) or performing in musicals or singing in the local talent show or rocking with a band?!

Post a short VIDEO to Instagram, showing off your musical doings, and include the tags:  #LPMGrads and #letsplaymusic  You know those videos are VERY short. Use your phone. This will be easy.

Tell us when you graduated! Tell us who your teacher was! Tell us what you remember about your LPM days! We are super proud of you and want to show off how much you've grown up.

If your account is private, be sure to invite @ShelleSolfege to see your post so we can find you. If it's mom or dad reading this post, yes, parents can post on their accounts on the behalf of the student (but some of our grads are in their 20's already!)

Tell your friends and family to LIKE your post, and on September 30 we'll choose the 3  most-liked grads to win $100 VISA cards!
