Sky Songs with Suzanne Jamieson Selmo on HFVS

Guest DJ Suzanne Jamieson Selmo hosts this sky-themed episode of the Hilltown Family Variety Show. The show takes listeners from sunrise to moonlight with songs about everything happening above us. Families can enjoy classic favorites and new tracks, all tied together by skywatching and the magic of the seasons. The music is great for all ages, but especially fun for preschool and elementary kids.

Music That Encourages Nature Observation

While listening, families can look outside and see how the music matches the sky. Kids might draw clouds, watch how sunlight moves, or start a simple sky journal. When songs about rain or moonlight play, parents can ask, “What do you notice right now?” or “How has the sky changed?” These little questions help kids connect music with weather, space, and what they see every day.

A Gentle Path into Sky Science

This episode helps families start simple conversations about the sky. Parents don’t need to know everything. Wondering together is part of the fun! If you can’t see the sky, you can still join in by looking at pictures, watching light through a window, or thinking about a favorite sunset. With Suzanne Jamieson Selmo leading the way, HFVS makes it easy to connect music with curiosity about what’s above us.
