Join us as we explore how different settings use Boogie Mites Music activities daily to maximise the impact of music within the Early Years.
We’ll partner with Childminder Sam Goldsworthy and Tops Exeter Nursery Deputy Manager Katy Brewer, to find out more about the power of repetition, repetition, repetition; how both adult-led group activities and opportunities for child-led music play can be woven into your planning; how settings can use individual songs alongside other activities throughout the day; and how music doesn’t have to be just an indoors activity, as we chat about taking music outside and using environmental props.
We will cover 2 Boogie Mites Christmas songs that you can enjoy every day throughout December!
