YouTube Karaoke


 Used to be that you needed a fancy Karaoke machine or video game to be a family room rock star.  Not any more!

Have on Hand: Your computer with internet access and a microphone (or make one out of tinfoil and a toilet paper tube).

Boredom Buster Description
Search for your favorite songs on YouTube. Disney movie tunes are family sing-along favorites. Click on a karaoke version in the search drop-down list and take turns belting out those ballads. Spiff up the activity by adding judges, score cards and teams. Or just keep it simple and sing away the cabin fever blues.

And if your kids find themselves a little star struck by the end of it all, check out So You Want to Be a Rock Star from Audrey Vernick.  Super fun!!

  2. Puresolo is another great site for karaoke backing tracks. They have a great catalogue, from tracks by Taylor Swift to Miley Cyrus. You can record yourself singing (video recording available too) and share it with the community and friends! Feel free to check it out at: http://www.puresolo.com
