Performances
Fran is known
for her uplifting, fun-filled performances, that touch children with the
concepts of acceptance, understanding differences, love, and respect, all
of which are embedded in her songs. Her concerts are very interactive;
children have a great time participating in all the songs. She performs at
festivals, libraries, elementary and preschools, early childhood settings,
birthday parties, and anywhere else children gather. Sing using sign
language in "Rainbow Around Me". Hear about all the things you can
do, even if you can't do something else, in "Seeing with my Ears".
Fran's music is chosen carefully to be developmentally
appropriate, so children can understand, learn, and
participate in all of the songs. Attend Fran's
performances and be there as the
children sing and learn, while having a totally fun-filled time!
