Music Makers





During our visit to Monticello, Shalisa wanted to take Ellie to Music Makers. She thought it was nursery. When people asked her what her name was she would say Daddy calls me "Sweets". And my hair is purple. It was really cute. So what you do at Music Makers is: everyone sits in a circle and sings a welcome song, sing do as I'm doing, then you do finger play songs, you get instruments and march around, movement time (usually Hoky Poky), learn new songs for the theme of the month, reading time, and good bye song. This month they learned about transportation, so they sang do as I'm doing and rail road track songs. I think Ellie had a fun time and will definitely go again when she visits Monticello again.
