Detailed Class Description
Singing
We start each class with Birdie’s Hello Song. Then we sing kids songs, such as “Itsy Bitsy Spider,” "Wheels on the Bus” & “Oh When the Ants, Come Marchin in.” Birdie may pass out bells or sticks for everyone to play.
Dancing, Movement or Game play
Birdie then leads the group in movement, "Dolphin Dance," "Monkey Dance," to music styles ranging from Latin to pop rock. We'll also play games like "Shake your Tail Feathers," or "pull the tail off the monkey."
Instrument Play
We all play percussion instruments such as bottle shakers, drums, castanets, tambourines & more to fun children's music that won't drive parents crazy. After free play, Birdie will also lead some call & response drum beats and percussion hits. Ole!
Fun facts * Storytime
Every class features a specific wild animal. And we hear a story or learn fun facts about the animal through Birdie's use of puppets & photos.
Goodbye
Then we sing the goodbye song.
Singing & chanting will be done as a group, with Birdie sometimes accompanying with light percussion. The Movement & Instrument Play will be done to CD tracks.
Birdie is Latina, so we sprinkle in words in Spanish. Entonces, spanish / bilingual speakers & nannies are WELCOME! Bienvenidos! Todos los animales y yo nos hablamos espanol! |
