Hey fellow music enthusiasts! Strap in for a wild ride through the wonderland of 2023, where the beats are fresh, the melodies are contagious, and the music room is bursting with creativity!

I’ve been on a musical rollercoaster this year, trying out some groovy tunes and activities that will have you tapping your toes and dancing like no one’s watching. From the infectious “Hop and Stop” song to the adrenaline-pumping parachute game, “Crocodile’s Stew,” and the chill vibes of “Down by the Ocean,” my musical escapades are all about having a blast while tuning into the rhythm of life.

So, buckle up and get ready to dive headfirst into the awesome musical adventures that went down in the music room this year – because the fun is just getting started!

Game by Lucinda Geoghegan 
Formation: Circle sitting, "Johnny" is in the centre with eyes closed. 
Directions: The circle sings the song and can substitute the name of the child in the centre if preferred. 
While the class sings the teacher can point to two students silently to take on the role ofthe brother and the mother. 
"1 told Ma" is sung individually by the brother, "1 told Pa" is sung individually by the mother, then the circle finishes 
the final phrase (substituting the centre child's name). "Johnny" has to guess which students sang to him. 
Then another child is chosen to o to the centre and the game begins again.
