I had a teacher in elementary school that handed out drawing paper and then put on a classical record. She told us to draw what we heard. To draw a picture or scene of what we felt the music was inspiring. It is a lesson that stuck with me and now when I listen to music I let it inspire me in my art as well.
An interesting concept would be to provide both to a child at the same time.
Letting the rhythm inspire a dance within a battle and inspire choreography as well as strategy.
And let imagination and music become the force within.

ReplyDeleteMy son just turned 3 and he's becoming more imaginative. I could see him having fun in a costume with inspiring music too!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of providing both! We do dress up or do "dance time" but never at the same time. We'll have to try it out this week!
ReplyDeleteOh he is way too cute! I don't think he likes it at all.....said no one..ever! He sure is having a blast!

So cute, especially with the adoring audience
ReplyDeleteI think this is a great idea. I will have to try classical music when my 3 year old grandson is playing. I even here dogs love classical music!!
