About Me

Brenda Hunten creator of Little JAM Sessions

Hi. I’m Brenda, creator and owner of Little JAM Sessions. Growing up, my faith, singing, and crafts were my favorite things. I graduated with my degree in music and my certificate in Christian Education and have been singing and teaching ever since. For the past 15 years, I’ve concentrated at teaching kids. I’ve taught Kindermusik, Gymboree, and Animal Adventures in Music. I’ve started and directed church preschool choirs and elementary school choirs.

Several years ago, I taught a church preschool choir. I was asked to teach them music, do a Bible lesson, and create a craft. While I thought that was great, there was no set curriculum, just a closet of supplies, a box of music, and my Bible. I thoroughly enjoyed creating cohesive lessons that brought the three focuses together. But I wondered how many teachers out there, especially volunteers, might feel a bit overwhelmed.

This is why I created Little JAM Sessions, a KidMin choir curriculum introducing littles to Jesus, Art, and Music. These are cohesive, themed lessons with a teacher guide, parent blog, take-home activities, original choir music, a suggested music playlist, a suggested book list, and more. I want to empower you – the teacher, the parent to disciple littles beyond memorization and into singing with understanding.
