transition times and such
By amanda

Clip to ScrapBook   
I use music all the time!!! We listen to calming music in the morning when the children first start coming in. Music is also great for transition -- I sing the children move, when I stop singing they have to stop moving. That way they aren't talking when they are moving from one spot to another. We also have three to four "shows" a year for parents. I use a lot of the oldies - "Joy To The World", "All Shook Up", etc. The kids sing and dance and love it! I also use music as a way for them to get their energy out and we do aerobics to the music. Don't ever give up using music!
