It was an absolute pleasure to have Cheryl Melody perform at the Worcester Public Library this April. Cheryl’s Musical Imagination Performance for young children was a delightful hour long performance that consisted of music, singing, puppets, storytelling and so much more.

MUSIC, MOVEMENT & IMAGINATION CONCERTS AND BIRTHDAYS
TESTIMONIALS: “We couldn’t have made a better choice than having you at our little boy’s birthday party. He felt so special that day with all the love and care you put into the show. All the kids were mesmerized by your songs, puppets, stories and the ways you interacted with the audience. It was an absolute pleasure for my husband and myself to get to know you a little more and discover personally the wonderful person you are. We were blown away by your kindness, dedication, attention to details and flexibility to accomodate all our needs. We felt like you wanted everything to be perfect, just like us, the parents. Marcel keeps talking about you and wants another birthday party with Cheryl Melody!”–Mili and Basil
“We were fortunate to have Cheryl Melody perform at our son’s 2nd birthday party. We could not have been happier. She truly brought so much joy to my son and his little friends (who ranged in ages from 18 months to 8 years). I was a bit apprehensive as to how my son would react to an entertainer whom he did not know given that he can be reserved at times. I shared this concern with Cheryl, and she asked me ahead of time all about my son and what he likes, etc. and then due to her years of experience working and sharing music with young children, she adapted her performance perfectly. I have never seen my son be more excited or enter into a musical performance as much as he did that day. Cheryl included him in every song and story and he felt so special. All of the other parents at the party remarked about how wonderful Cheryl was and how natural she was with the children. Unlike many other child entertainers, she is a talented musician who shares her love for music in such a lovely way. I plan on having Cheryl for future children’s events as I have never seen another entertainer engage with children of all different ages in such a individualized and talented way.”–A. Woolley
“I am so glad we both followed our hearts, what a special day for Olivia (and all the kids) whenever someone asks her about her birthday party her face just lights up! We all said she really came out of her shell with you 
and I knew she would!”–Kristin

TA-DAAAA! More Authentic Testimonials
“Cheryl Melody will give you 150% in her Concerts, CD’s, Keynotes & Workshops!” –Dr. N. Leslie–Oklahoma & Pennsylvania
“One of the best children’s entertainers I have seen. The children were taken on a wonderful trip of enlightening their senses with new sounds, sights, and fuel for their imagination.” –Joan Rodeck, Community Care for Kids
“Cheryl tackles the serious topic of bullying in such a wonderfully-fun, high-energy way. The mixture of meaningful songs, multi-cultural puppets, musical instruments and storytelling really held the children’s attention and they especially loved the many opportunities to participate in the show whether it was singing along with Cheryl, helping hold a puppet or playing one of the instruments. Cheryl’s positivity is infectious and she held the rapt attention of our Kindergarten and first graders from beginning to end”-Daintry, PTO/SOS Parent
“I want to thank you for stimulating my children’s imaginations and for teaching me so much. We all had a wonderful morning. I just keep wondering why I hadn’t discovered you before! Your genuine love of children and your craft just glowed during the entire program. You have exactly the type of program I look for-not a performance, but total participation. Don’t lose those directions. I’ll be asking for repeat visits. I shall pass the word to my fellow librarians. You are a treasure!” Moses Greeley Parker Memorial Library
“You have sung your way right into my heart…WOW….WOW…WOW…I am so delighted with your music… and the lyrics of your peace begins with me themes in the CD, “Celebrate!” just knock my socks off…I LOVE EVERY SINGLE SONG!!!” –Danice-Oregon
“Melody, out of a 10, you were a 12!” –Parent, Cape Cod Library
“Cheryl Melody is the most refreshing, dedicated and creative artist focusing on the appreciation of diversity in its many forms, and the encouragement of personal responsibility for respectful living. She spreads her message in a joyful way that easily engages both parents and children. I appreciate her ability to be flexible and gear each performance to the specific needs of each audience. Parents have responded very positively to her presentations, messages, and the relationship she quickly develops with the children. The performances themselves are filled with originality and participatory activities for the whole family–so important when the audience is multi-aged. Her performances are meaningful and unique for a child beginning to learn about very important “big” life issues in ways that have impact and staying power.”
Marie Cassidy, Medford Family Network Director
“Melody, your sound healing CD for relaxation made me feel like someone who loved me-wrapped their arms around me-held me close and would let nothing in, but would protect me from all harm and hurt. Your words, your voice, your sweet sound caresses my soul and makes me warm and happy. What a gift you are, my dear girl-you are truly a special person. -E. Leon-Florida

Cheryl’s music has garnered a Kidlutions Preferred Product Award for two sets of three CD’s. The first set includes (for early childhood): Let’s Pretend and More (Ages 4-7) These CD’s boast a broad range of offerings, with an upbeat mix of both songs and stories. Some songs are classics and some are Melody’s own creations. She includes a beautiful blend of mulitcultural songs from around the world, that can provide a wonderful conduit for a child’s imagination. No matter which of these CD’s you purchase (or better yet, if you get all three), you can be sure that you are buying a product that will bolster your child’s self-esteem, nurture their hearts, improve their social and listening skills and enhance their creativity. Melody even teaches kids how to be their own best friend. A bonus is the foot stomping, hand clapping, finger tapping, singing, dancing good time that is guaranteed in all of Melody’s works. These songs have far reaching effects…and will stay with your child for years to come. One child who listened to these CDs at bedtime as a preschooler at the age of 4, still remembers the lyrics to many of the songs as a fourth-grader. Now that’s staying power. The second set includes (for elementary aged up): Friends Forever (ages 4/5-grade 2/3) In this set of CD’s, Melody conquers some big issues, such as character-building, self-respect, respect for others, bullying, conflict-resolution, anti-bias, world peace and more. All of this is handled in a way that is accessible to young people and helps them think about the impact they have on others, as well as the difference they can make. These CD’s empower kids to make good choices and to be “change-makers”. Once the CDs are purchased, some of the CD’s have FREE downloadable lyrics, lesson plans and MORE that complement the music and stories. Melody’s life’s work has been to teach others a kinder, more gentle way of being in this world. It is fascinating to read her life’s story, which will give you more insight into the driving force behind the music and the message. Visit her site to learn more.
