Listen 8

(part 8 of 8 from the article The Benefits of Listening)

How can listening be fun?

• Draw a picture that mimics what the music sounds like (lines going up for high sounds, or thick lines for loud sounds, or wiggly lines for fast sounds, etc.)
• Draw a picture that relates to the title of the music (A camel for Chant Arab or kids at play for Little Playmates)
• Move to the music—BOTH of you, not just your child!  March, skip, walk, wiggle, jump, crawl, run, and dance.
