Music Mania

I am going to do my best to follow and post a theme of activities each week to do during the summer.  These activities will include fun outdoor activities, crafts, reading/storytelling, and other learning ideas.

It is important to keep the mind fresh during summer break so kids are ready for school when it is time to go back.

I am not taking it too heavy on the learning side, I want summer to be a fun time for exploring and play.  I still want the kids to look forward to summer break.

This is the first year I am trying a 'plan' during the summer.  I will be posting our activities here and other activities on my Facebook page Big Energy Little Learners.

I hope you get inspired!

Here are our activities for week 5:

Week 5: MUSIC

I am not going to lie this was a hard week for me.  I have a hard time encouraging music because it easily gets really loud.  My future husband works from home and there needs to be a certain level of quiet required for the job.  It also makes me anxious.  When there is a lot of noise in a small space it is like I can feel it through my whole body.  So we did the loud activities outside.  

Here is the list of links for the music activities we did this week:

Making Music

Guitar in 5 minutes

Rhythm

Flute of Cain

Music Moods

Painting to Music

You will also notice this week's activities number less then previous weeks due to me and both my dragons being sick.  We also had 2 field trips this week which also put us behind.  Given that I am happy we got in the amount of music fun that we did. I almost gave up on the week. 6 is enough for 1 activity a day.
