Ms. Joanie offers a special music class after school on Thursdays from 2:30-3:00. She introduced the children to handbells and they learned to play jingle bells! They did such a great job!
Today the Toddlers had so much fun with Ms.Joanie during music! Each child was given a chance to play the rainbow colored bells. They did a great job waiting for their turn. We talked about how we use our ears to hear instruments and songs.
The toddlers had another fun day decorating festive cookies and painting turkeys with water colors! The boys and girls enjoyed singing songs and playing the guitar with Ms.Joanie during music and movement. We practiced “Jingle Bells” and “A turkey is a funny bird”. We hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving break with family and friends… see you next week!
Today the toddlers had so much fun singing and dancing with Ms. Joanie! The boys and girls played various instruments and practiced keeping on the beat. We even had a chance to sing “Elmo’s World” and bounce Elmo on a shiny scarf! There were lots of giggles and smiles today.. we love when Ms. Joanie pays us a visit!
The boys and girls look forward to music and movement every day. They love to “shake out their sillies” and “drive in their cars”. Once a week we have the pleasure of having Ms. Joanie and her special guest, Elmo play music with us! Music helps children develop memory skills and language and literacy skills. Music and Movement helps develop listening skills, auditory discrimination, and concentration. Young children use this time to express feelings and emotions while increasing self esteem. Check out the children using their fine motor skills to strum the guitar as they sing along to some of their favorite songs!
