FOCUS AREAS: [proprioception] [low frequency vibration] [active listening] [low energy] [inhibitory control]
Source: Catch a Song, Deanna Hoermann & Doreen Bridges (1985)
Extension?
- Using scarves: scrunching the scarf up into a tiny "flea" that moves with the pitch up/down the body.
- As the child/ren develop language skills, they will begin to anticipate and create the movement response to "take that you flea!"
- Can be sung during tummy time or lying on their back.
