Finding The Good
I’m finally doing something that I’ve been meaning to do for a long time . . . a brain dump of all the music teaching ideas I used when I was a music leader for Primary children at my ward for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I taught music to about 100 kids religious music every week… Read More
The Emoji Movie is out and making it’s way through the box office this summer. Have you seen it? What did you think? I find it hilarious that there is now an entire hour and a half dedicated to the tiny texting faces on our cell phones. But it’s totally the way my teenagers talk. They use emojis like crazy… Read More
I talk about making life meaningful. I believe in treasuring time with our families, and teaching our kids that we are all in this together. As an LDS family, we believe that families can be together forever. That family relationships continue after we die. Every week we gather as a family and have a “family night” or Family Home Evening… Read More
I teach music to children every Sunday. It’s my way of helping at our LDS church. I am the Primary music chorister for all children in our congregation (or ward as we call them) ages 3-11 years old. Then I also teach music to the tiny kids in nursery, ages 18 months to 3 years old, every Sunday as well…. Read More
I’ve been at it again. I got all crafty making some GIANT DICE for my LDS church primary kids. Remember how I’m the Primary Chorister at church? I teach music to about 130+ children for about an hour each Sunday. So every week I like to come up with new ideas to change it up a little. This time I… Read More
Sharing a little game I made for our music time at church. I’m the LDS chorister for the Primary children and so I came up with this easy Pin The Feather on The Turkey Game. We’ll be talking about gratitude and singing songs about being thankful and Thanksgiving. I actually got this turkey and his feathers in a little kit… Read More
A few days ago I made this little Peek-a-boo Puppet to help teach the children at church. This could be used at school or home as well. It was super easy to make in one afternoon. And this puppet is double-sided. A peekaboo puppet hides in the container and moves up and down as needed. The puppet is shy and… Read More
Remember how I mentioned I was the new music teacher for all the children at our church? Well, I’ve decided to share with you another one of my creations to motivate the kids to sing. It’s a DIY Sing-O-Meter. This is so easy to make. And it basically takes crayons and glue and poster board. You can use it for… Read More
Hi y’all. Today I thought I’d share an easy to make Tissue Punch Game. I made this for our church this past week. It’s like the Price is Right style punch wall that you’ve seen people making for parties and kids’ games, but you can reuse this over and over again. I’m the new Primary Music Chorister in my ward at… Read More
