Rhythm Time: Weeks 1-2

Week 1

Use hands for instruments this week. Focus on instructing children with specific hand movements. Tell children to follow a set of instructions such as:

hold your hands over your heads and wiggle your fingers
hold your hands in front of you and wiggle your fingers
hold your hands in front of you very still
hold your hands in back of you
hold one hand up
hold the other hand up
put your hands in your laps
hold your hands in front of you and clap one time, then two times
repeat one clap, then repeat two claps
end the session by randomly clapping each child's name according to the number of syllables.

Week 2

Review by repeating Week 1 activities. Include some variety of actions with their hands and clap words related to the lessons. Clap to "Jesus Loves Me."
