WAX ON WITH THE KIDS! THE SOUNDTRACK EDITION GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY: AWESOME MIX VOL. 2

BLUEY: DANCE MODE! Activity: Once you have The BeeeeeOOP Walk down pat (remember: start with your feet out like a duck, then pop them in, while spinning, and saying ‘Beeeee-OOP!’), listen for the jazzy organ solo that comes in at the one-minute mark. When you hear it, change your “BeeeeeOOP” to a new BARBIE: THE ALBUM Questions: Dua Lipa's Dance the Night Away is a disco song, a genre closely associated with dance. If you have any disco records in your collection, give them a spin. Which instruments can you hear that also feature in Dance the Night ? What parts of the music do you think are most important in disco?

It's school holidays, and that means the battle is on to limit screen time and maximise fam time! We're big believers in the power of music to facilitate quality companionship and interesting discussion, so we've put together a soundtrack edition of our vinyl-focused 'questions and activities' series. If you haven’t already, start with the basics: Show your kids how to carefully remove a record from its sleeve, and place it on the player without grubbying its surfaces. If they're old enough, get your kids comfortable with handling the stylus of your record player. Then head into our ideas for fun trivia and activities for the whole family!

Questions: The Chain is one of the few Fleetwood Mac songs that was written by all band members! You might already know that it’s

BONUS: There’s a song on side two written by an artist who has since changed his name. Do you know who it is?

nonsense noise, which matches the way the organ solo makes you feel. Congratulations! You've just performed scatting, an improvisational jazz vocal technique!
