free classical music from Amazon.com


A nice addition to our classical music library! Amazon.com offers several different classical pieces for free via MP3 download. There are also other categories in the Free section including songs for children and Christian music. I believe the offerings change out frequently, so check back on a regular basis for more free songs.

free black-line clipart

Educational Technology Clearinghouse logoClipart ETC: An online service of Florida's Educational Technology Clearinghouse

I revisited this site today because I'm making a money "mini-office" for my 5-year old son. I was amazed at all the great FREE clip-art they offer. Not the least amazing was the Famous People section with over 3900 illustrations (glad I decided to wait on buying that $80 collection!).
