Music + game = FUN!
All kids like games. And all kids like music, and when we combine these ingridients, we get absolutely fantastic fun!
And not only for kids! for the whole family!!
It's hard to day who likes this fun more - me or my son😃
I got this idea from one of the Motherhood and Unschooling communities in our social net. And I fell in love at once!
So the idea is - to make definite movements according to definite signs;) And it should be combined with music and its rhythm.
For example:
We took oranges and apples.
Number of them shows number of the movements that we make.
An orange means 1 clap
An apple means 1 clap on the floor
You can create other movements you like. The main is they should be easy for the age of your kid but at the same time they should train some skills.
This game seems to be so simple, but it has HUGE benefits:
*kids develop their feeling of music
*feeling of rythm
*their coordination becomes better
*ability of concentration increases
and it's just GREAT FUN!
It is really more complicated than it can seem;)
especially if we combine not just 2 but 3 or 4 movements.
The best song for this game is a Chinese Cuckoo song, but you can find any you like in your native language that will develop kids' feeling of speech rythm too.
Here I've found this very song + one of the examples of this game
Do you like it, guys?:)
