Sing, move, dance, clap, and play instruments! Little Musicians in Motion is a mommy and me, and/or daddy and me, musical jamboree class for children aged 4 months to 6 years who enjoy singing, dancing, and making music with instruments!
Open Gym
We recently participated in an Open Gym. Melinda, the owner and teacher, is very friendly, enthusiastic, and easy-going. Her energy was contagious, and she had fun herself singing the songs and leading the motions. She learned the children’s names quickly and involved each of them actively in the class.
We began Open Gym time with a Car Wash, where each child participated in some way. All of the children loved the bubbles that filled the air. Even the littlest ones were involved!
Each child was then given a little jungle animal while we sang The Jungle Song. We practiced animal sounds, learned the signs for each animal, and played musical instruments together.
One of the kids’ favorite activities was the Bounce House (I wish we had these when we were little!). While the children took turns in the bounce house, Melinda kept everyone engaged while leading a song and jumping to the beat.
The drums were a big hit. The children loved playing the drums fast, slow, soft, hard – following Melinda’s lead and playing to the music. The fun-filled hour ended with all sorts of games with the parachute.
Melinda kept the class moving, one song or activity to the next for the entire hour. All of the children from 13 months to 4 years old were engaged, and the Moms were all involved playing along with their children. When I asked my son what part he liked the most, he said he didn’t like any part, he liked all of it!
