Dec. 2011

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year and a fun vacation! I sure did and I'm ready to get back to Kindermusik! I hope you all enjoy classes as much as I do. I am so thankful to be able to have these experiences with you and your children. I love that music can do so much to help our children develop. And it's so fun too!

Here are some pictures of December highlights!






Flying like the birds!
Even birds have to check themselves out in the mirror!

Practicing being able to hear high and low.
Writing some music on our staff charts.
Learning about Native American music.
I can do so many things, all by myself!

Playing the one-bell jingles takes so much concentration and fine motor skills!



Birdies asleep in the nest!

Awake!!

More high and low:





Trying out our steady beat skills on metal instruments.







We love rocking time!

Yay! We finally got our glockenspiels!
