Jane Christison, also known as children's musician, Janie Next Door®, has developed a whole menu of live musical programs for kids, using an instrument that children don't get to see very often- an accordion. Janie invites the audience to sing along, march, clap hands, dance and be part of the show as she celebrates holidays, visits other countries, and plays music for lots of fun themes. 

The program includes movements such as marching, clapping, and dancing every other song.  This performance is best scheduled in a classroom, multipurpose room, or a gymnasium space that is large enough for children to get up and move around safely. The maximum audience size depends on the capacity of the room in which the performance will be held, but size will generally be 100 or less per show.
