Experimenting with Sounds


 The Monday afternoon children experimented with different sounds at mat time.

They waved the scarves in the air softly because the music was soft and mellow.


"It made me sleepy"

"It sounds like being dead" 


Then we had two groups dancing to two different types of music. 

One sounded like butterflies and fairies so we all waved our hands around and flapped our "wings." 


The other music sounded like dinosaurs stomping around so we all stomped around and roared and growled like dinosaurs.  It was a bit scary for some of us watching because it was very convincing.
