The Magical Lamp

Our puppet show is one of our favorite parts of class. Each week we listen to the music and recognize themes in the music. We have been listening to "Aragonaise" from Carmen by George Bizet. We love the characters we can hear. This week we acted out our puppet show instead of using the puppets. It was great fun using our bodies to represent the characters.


Dallin enjoys being Alladin



Camri is the magical smoke!


McCall isn't too sure she wants to be the princess...



Gavin P is enjoying his turn as the happy fella Alladin!


Ryan really got into his part!


Shaeleigh is afraid of the scary genie so she is hiding under her vest.


Evan made a very good Magical Lamp!

Echo Ed loves....

Halloween! He loves to dress up and has to find the perfect costume! This week he wanted to show the kids a costume to see how they liked it. The vote was unanimous! They loved it! What do you think of Echo Ed's costume?



Echo Ed loves Halloween and dressing up soooooo much that he has asked all the kids to come in their Halloween costume next week. He thinks masks are scary so please don't wear a mask our you will frighten him.

New Class being Added!

I have a family that would like to participate in the Let's Play Music program. They need an evening class so I am currently looking for a few students to fill the evening class time. Class will be Wednesdays at 6:30. This is for new students only. I will not be rearranging classes to fill this class. Remember if you recruit anyone for me you will get a $15 gift certificate to use toward tuition anytime this year. Spread the word about how great Let's Play Music is for your child!

Red Balloons Lesson #1

I hope you all have enjoyed the first lesson with your child. I know my girls couldn't wait to put together their puppets and sing along with their CD. They want to sing the songs over and over again. It is great to see that kind of excitement about music!
Music is a very powerful thing! It can truly make smarter children, change hearts and communicate feelings words alone cannot. The things we are learning in class will help your children have a love of music that will last a lifetime!

I got the cutest email from one of our moms shortly after the first class. She said "I just wanted to let you know how much fun my kids had at class yesterday. You did a great job making the music fun for us. All evening long we sang and danced to our new cd and made music with the bells. Although I didn't really want him to, Max took his bells with him everywhere--even outside. I've attached a picture of him on his scooter with his "instrument" as he calls it. When I was tucking Katie in bed last night she asked if after her story and prayer could she practice her music again. Thank you for introducing us to this program."

I hope you all are experiencing something similar with your children at home! Feel free to email me your stories and pictures...You never know, your story might just end up here on our blog!
