It's a special time to share finger plays, chants and rhymes, songs play rhythm instruments, read a story, and participate in movement games and relaxation activities.

It’s a time for auditory memory, sensory experiences, socialization, and a time for fun. Teachers have the power to make group time more effective and enjoyable for all involved.
