Creating, experimenting, and learning go hand in hand. Art is exploratory and provides the child with a focus on objects outside himself. It is a source of immediate experience and does not need to be planned or purposeful.
Music is to make, to use, and to enjoy.
We sing every day during circle time and listen to a diverse collection of music at various times during the day. As children sing and do finger plays, they use their imaginations and improve coordination. They develop an appreciation for the patterns and the musical variety produced by rhythms and melodies. Most important at this age, they learn to simply love music and find joy in participating and listening. Go to Lower School visual arts or performing arts curriculum.
