Lakes Animal Friendship Society (LAFS) is at it again, with another song added to its roster of educational and entertainment material to teach kids how to care for their animal friends.
Earlier this month, the society released a brand-new interactive song called 鈥淢y Dog Scruff鈥�, along with re-releasing some of their old songs with a fresh new feel.
Valerie Ingram and Alistair Schroff have been putting out some very heartwarming and educational books for kids to understand how to care for their pets. These songs make for an addition to their already extensive educational and entertainment material, around critter care.
In 2012 when Ingram had met singer/songwriter Lowry Olafson at a songwriting workshop for the Grassy Plains School students, she thought of roping in Olafson鈥檚 鈥淭hemeShops鈥� to help the society create their very own theme song.
A couple of months later, Lowry and a host of local animal lovers came together to create the song 鈥淭each My Person How to Love Me鈥�.
The theme song along with a few other creations, were recorded by Olafson professionally, and CDs were distributed for these songs even years later.
鈥淎s we worked on our major re-do of all our education materials during COVID, songs were a must. We once again asked Lowry to help us get them out in a fun and effective way. Lowry helped us to rework five of our existing animal care and safety songs,鈥� said Schroff in his newsletter.
To make the songs accessible, they are freely available on the LAFS website, and they can also be found on the major streaming and digital music services. The songs can also be accessed on: Lakes Animal Friendship Society - Critter Care Singalong Songs https://lafs.hearnow.com/
The society has also created karaoke versions of the songs, complete with videos on their YouTube Channel to help kids sing along.
鈥淲e hope that you enjoy them. Feel free to use the songs to make your own critter care-positive videos, and share the videos with us!鈥� added Schroff.
