Movement stories in a summer camp
|
Hello dear friends! Can you help me to find movement stories for kids at the age of 8-11. I don �t know if it is the correct name of the activity. I need stories when a child or a teacher reads a story and the other children try to act it. For example, I saw a forest. The trees in this forest were swaying (Kids who show the trees should put their hands up and act swaying) Thanks in advance! |

Try searching for �Action songs � There are lots of links - maybe this will help. |

Fully agree with Apodo! My kids love "Tofa, tafa" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRpMZUylwfY and the smallest ones enjoy Super Simple Songs like "If you �re happy" |

Hi, You could also search for TPR songs. One particular song which is fun for little one is, "Once I Saw a Little Bird" (go hop, hop, hop). Enjoy, have fun. |

As to the action songs, here are some of MY favourite ones. I think they �ll work great for the summer camp.This one can be a hymn for the camp:)
