Music is a Universal Language
/Last night's class started off with a request for Skin-a-ma-rink, which was received very well. The kids loved doing the actions and singing the silly words. It was requested by a young toddler girl who doesn't speak much English, and it was fun to see her come alive when we sang it. There are young twin girls in this class who don't speak much English, and it's really a lot of fun to see them enjoy the music and dance, even if they don't fully understand the words yet.
The highlights included pretending to be on bicycles while singing, I Have a Little Bicycle, and stopping and starting with the traffic lights. The rhythm sticks were also a hit.
