Painting to the sounds of MUSIC!!!

Hello pre-tot Fams!!!

What an amazing day we had today!!!! We all began our morning outside with all of our older friends and got to look at the inside of one of our watermelons from the garden. Livio even tasted the watermelon. Malik and Miles enjoyed poking it with their fingers and picking out some of the seeds.

Later, we all went in for snack and Circle time; by the way, our lil tulips are rocking circle time like pros! During circle time we sang our good morning song followed by our days of the week song and the weather song. Then miss Sandy read "Eyes, Ears, Toes and Nose," and every page had a body part in which we had them show us on their body; they did fantastic!!! After reading the book we sang "Do Your Ears Hang Low," and "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes."

Shortly after circle time, we did an activity where our little tulips painted a picture as they listened to a variety of instrumental music; some songs were slow or fast paced. I did this activity in my music class at Texas State and my professor said that this is a great listening activity when combining music and art. I noticed that when a song would change the flow of their artwork changed to :)

Once we were all done with our listening/painting activity, we all headed outside for some more outdoor exploration.

I am so proud of our little tulips and how well they are adjusting and learning their routine :)

Until next time friends!

Much love,
