TD Summer Reading Program Week 7: Ages 9-12

WEEK 7: PLAY MUSIC
 The second to last week of the summer reading program has flown by! This week we broke the library's rule of being quiet and we made quite the racket making some music. 

Our question of the day was : If you could play any instrument what would it be? Almost everyone answered either piano or guitar, they were very popular instruments!

The first game we played was musical chairs. I had each of the kids tell me their favourite song and we played a round of music chairs for each! 

 The next activity we did was body percussion, here are some of the rhythms that we did!
