Musical chairs



Musical chairs has been a popular game for the children lately. This game is fun and provides children with numerous learning experiences. The children learn about spatial awareness and how to control their body so that they don't hurt or bump other children.

We also used our maths skills to count the number of children and number of chairs as we took each chair away.

Some of the younger children understandably had difficulty comprehending that they were out when they had no chair to sit on when the music ended but I overcame this by setting up chairs in a different place so that they could keep going. This worked well.

Noah ended up our overall champion closely followed by Anika.
