From music to puddles, it's been an eventful couple of weeks! Our little songwriters are in full force. Kids are filling up their songwriting books, and can't wait for more opportunities to work with musicians to co-create their songs. So far we've had visits from Mike Roberts and Matt Valentine. Next week we welcome Chelle Martinez. Linked below are some of the "rough cuts" from their sessions with us. You'll hear the visiting musicians doing most of the singing. Now that these songs are fully formed, we're having such a great time learning them as a class.
Instruments in Wildwood Forest, always a good time.
Ask your child about these water jars, and how they become an instrument.
A fun visit with an electric guitar helped us sing "Happy Birthday" to Melissa in style.
A lot of eager songwriters waiting to work with Mike!
Here are their creations:
Matt Valentine helped midwife these songs into existence:
We can't wait to see what happens next week when Chelle Martinez joins us!
We had a fantastic trip to the Retreat Farm on Tuesday. These kiddos are patiently waiting for a rabbit to eat some carrots from their hands.
Beautiful mural at the farm.
The oxen were a highlight for many kids.
MY highlight was the incredible forest playground.
Just love this gently flowing stream!
The Retreat Farm is open to the public - you can go visit any time!
Farmer Amy was happy to have a little help in the garden.
Ahhh, rain.
We've had a GREAT time playing in the puddles these past two days.
This is the "Coffee Shop" - look delicious?
Have a fantastic weekend! Enjoy the warm sun coming our way!
