Today I Took Britt to Music Class.

Britt and I go to a KinderMusik type class on Thursdays.  It’s a lot of fun. 

(this isn't a pic of Britt at class, but I figured since she was the reason we go to music class, any picture of her is fitting.  Besides, it was taken today so I could get pics of the kiddos into the mail for grandparents - I'm so bad at keeping them in current photos!)

The teacher puts a lot of thought and effort into the activities and songs.  She has a huge assortment of props: musical instruments of every kind, stuffed animals, hula hoops, and even hobby horses.  And she has enough for a large group of children!

Today we danced with streamers.  I was impressed with these streamers because they were colorful and fun and I could totally make them myself.  The handle was a canning jar ring and the streamers were flagging tape.  The teacher had tied strips of tape to the rings in purples, oranges, and yellows.

So fun and pretty!  I'm going to have to make some for us to play with at home.  When I do, I'll post a how-to. 

(I got the bubbles out to encourage Ash to look up and smile - Britt didn't need any help in that area - and it worked, but then Britt got sober while Ash got excited.  **sigh**)

P.S.  Thank you for your sweet comments on yesterday's post.  Made me smile and warmed my heart.  Sounds like, for the most part, you all are ready for the same reasons I'm writing.  Sounds good!
