Get moving!

 In Kindermusik we do a lot of moving! 
Movement is a universal, full time occupation for little ones.
Continuous activity is essential for optimal growth and motor function and control.

What does this mean?
Turn on some music and dance!
As a child moves around the room they learn how to organize their space
in relation to themselves and other objects.

Go for a walk, crunch some leaves, touch the cold rushing water, 
let the sand slide through your fingers 
(and if a little ends up in their mouth, don't despair,
little ones learn a lot through their mouths)
 
And what do you do when they won't hold still long enough to take their picture?
Take a blurry one and be happy they are learning and growing!
