Singing bowls

The kids were fascinated and intrigued by the Tibetan/Nepalese singing bowls that I brought to class today. They were a little fractious at the beginning of class but as soon as I brought the bowls out it was like time stood still. They were quiet, still, and became pensive. They all took turns clanging the wooden mallet against the singing bowl but they treated them gently which was nice to see. We observed how different sized bowls make different tones and we practised singing the different tones as a group.
