Music class at last..

We finally enrolled her in a music class here and our initial try-out class was more or less okay except for the fact that I had forgotten to bring along the water bottle from the car. She had asked me when we were on our way, and as I was the only one with her and was driving then, I couldn’t entertain her request to stretch to the back to get hold of the bottle. When we got there, we went scurrying out as I thought we were late and I had forgotten about it. And just when the class started, she made a face and asked for water again! Mummy’s mistake and she asked me for the water throughout the class…

All in all, the first class was okay and she was excited about the fact that they gave out stickers. But then, it was only for the kids with books and she hadn’t gotten hers yet as we haven’t enrolled then. She was disappointed but luckily she understood. She reported to her nenna that she didn’t get her stickers coz she didn’t have a book; and I felt bad. You can see how excited she was when we went down and purchase the book.

The class was full of happy music and we did a lot of singing and movements. There were also story telling with big picture posters but with music this time. It was a parent-child class so mummy had to make sure that she’s in the mood for it too. :D

And we were given a CD to listen at home as homework; so that they get to familiarize themselves with the music and achieve the targeted action by following the beat. And we did it about two nites ago and again in the car last nite. And because I missed a few days before that, so I repeated the songs over and over and this morning, I am still humming to it and can’t get it out of my head.

I asked her before enrolling whether she wants to come again; and she said yes. Contrary to the time I took her to a ballet class try-out when she just turned three and she repeatedly said no while clinging to me all the time about coming back to the class..hehe I think she is a bit more mature now and is excited about being there I guess. But I did try asking her about the ballet class again and her response this time were with much more enthusiasm than the last. But I guess we’re going to settle with this music class first before we start thinking about ballet again.. :D
