Hands-on music workshops are a fun way for you and your child to explore basic percussion, movement, singing and musical games together in a relaxed environment.
We will begin with some lovely gentle warm-ups in a circle, with full peer inclusion so every child feels equal, heard and involved. Starting the workshop with some gentle singing, moving into fun musical ice-breaker games, building up the musical energy with maracas and tambourines. We will introduce sensory scarves and support children to move to music in the space. Once the tiny dancers start to get tired, we return to our circle and enjoy some songs to finish the workshop.
Facilitated by experienced Music Generation educators, children and carers will leave with a musical pep in their step!
