Miss Sonja our music teacher came today and along with her guitar she brought along some fun
math and fine motor skill activities.
She sang out the instructions and we attempted to build our castles according to her instructions.
This required us to listen carefully so we would know what to build.
Three on the bottom and two in the middle and one on top.
Build a tall castle. This required a steady hand and concentration!
Build a castle with a friend.
After we had finished building with the cups Miss Sonja gave us all a square of bubble wrap.
What a great workout for our fingers and thumbs and to develop the muscles we need to hold
a pencil in the all important three finger grip.
When we had finished popping all the bubbles we sang Cocorico and then it was home time.
We always look forward to our music day as we get to do so many fun activities.
Great photos and a great blog post. You are right in saying that having Ms. Sonja come to the centre has been a really special time for the children. She always comes so prepared having put so much thought into how she can help the children develop and grow to enjoy the world of music together. The Centre is blessed to have found Ms. Sonja and she is such a good fit for us. Thanks for sharing about this part of the program
