Barnyard Music and Movement Party

For our Very First Music and Movement Birthday, we got a Barnyard Theme Birthday for a 4-year Old Boy!This is what we presented on the day:

Farmer Nathali has sent you a very special message that involves your very special birthday.

Here is what we have in store for you!

1) We will firstly hand out Name Tags for all your Students (Names and ages to please be provided 2 days before the Party)

2) Then Comes the 'Hello, Everybody! ' Welcome Song!

3) After the Welcome Song we do a little Physical Warm-up Poem Called the Barnyard Dance.

It is super special, Farmer Nathali will teach it to you while we are doing all the actions! How quickly can we do it??

The Barnyard Dance for Devan

The Barnyard dance is about to begin.

So hitch up your pants and jump right in.

Pick the Apples! Husk the Corn!

Crow with the rooster in the early Morn!

Bow to your partner! Wave Hello!

Clap your hands and tap your toe!

Feed the Chickens! Milk the cow!

Hoe the weeds and push the plow!

The Barnyard dance has come to an end,

So kick up your heels and start again!

4)We then go on a Journey with our Magical Tractor! (Each Child gets a Hula Hoop, that will be used as a prop for the rest of the activities!)

We start off with our Imaginary Tractor Steering Wheel! And we will make stops at every animal on the Farm! First is Mother Duck!

5) Here we will Make and Decorate Duck Masks! (Paper Plates, Feathers, Wooden Sticks, and Boogly Eyes -Included in Price)

After we are done with our Masks we will play a special 'Follow the leader' Game called: 'Follow Mother Duck'

6)It's time to pick up our Tractor Steering Wheels again and move on over to the Horses and Donkeys! 

Here we will play a 'Musical Chairs' Game with Donkey and Horse Pictures! On the floor there will be 9 Horses and 1 Donkey Picture! Every time the Music Stops the person who is on the Donkey Picture is out! We only Take out Horse Pictures as the contestants get fewer!

7)Our Last Animal Visit is for Mrs Hen! She has lay-ed so many eggs that she said we can play with them! The Hula Hoops will be put into 3 different targets! Lets see how many eggs we can get into our Target Areas! (Not real Eggs!)

8) All the Tractor Steering Wheels go Back into the Bag, Now its time to enjoy some Music and Play with the Drama Doodle Parachute!

9) For winding down time we all sit around our Hula Hoops,playing with Musical instruments! Every now and then we will swop our instruments with the person next to us! All we want to do is make a lot of noise!

We will then hand out special party-packs for all the participants! Please let us know about any sort of Food-allergy! 

This lesson could be around an hour to an hour and a half!
