While I may not be able to sing and dance alongside our students these days, I wanted to share a few activities each week to help bring the joy of music into your own home. I hope it gives you and your family a chance to move around, get creative and make a little noise!
Remember, none of these activities are required. But if you are looking for some other things to do with your children during this time, here are some music related ideas.
Try one, or try them all - just remember to HAVE FUN!
