Music on the Move
The rhythms of music are a natural for lively dancing. Kids delight in imagining how their favorite instruments might move if they could dance.
1. Listen carefully to music that you enjoy. Notice how your favorite instrument sounds. What kinds of movements do these sounds remind you of?
2. With Crayola® Crayons or Markers, draw your favorite instrument on white paper.
3. Now, imagine how that instrument might look if it could dance to its own music. Give it arms or legs, and draw it in action.
4. Add a background or costume to make your instrument show its true personality.
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
