Homeschool help....please

I have a few questions for you, if you don't mind. :)

First, what living books do you recommend for history? I really want to find some Christian based, accurate books about history that would be good for reading aloud to my children. I am hoping some of you will be able to give me some suggestions.

Second, do you have any suggestions for teaching music? I need something that is easy to use and easy to understand. I am not musically inclined and have forgotten all I learned in high school. So, I need a program that I can use without having to know anything ahead of time. Some of my children are expressing an interest in playing instruments but I'm not ready to start lessons until I know how interested they really are. So, I would like to teach the basics at home first. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

Blessings,
Rashel

    This morning I was over looking at the Baldwin Project and picking up Book I from a History selection:

    Not overly christian but very useful. It did end with Jesus being born though - which I really liked.
