Feeling for Mangoes

Noodle Loaf - Music Education Podcast for Kids

Show Notes

Press play and brace yourself for some music games, a song about fruits and April Fools jokes aplenty. We'll play a drawing game called Guided Doodling where you will doodle a mystery drawing based on the narrated instructions. Will it be an octopus? Probably not, but maybe? A little more details on the various music activities beloooooow: Finish The Pattern - Our pattern recognition game teams up with solfege for some real live music game fun. Fair warning, there are animal sounds and some amateur beatboxing.

✪ Echo Song - Mango Season - Our repeat after me style sing along song is all about some of our favorite fruits! Mangoes, watermelons and strawberries. A fun fact about this upbeat children's song is that you can insert whatever your favorite fruits or veggies are. If you love kohlrabi then you would just sing "Wake Me Up When Its Kohlrabi Season." This is a no judgement zone. You do you.

✪ Guided Doodle - Get yourself a pencil and paper, we are going to draw together. Noodle Loaf provides the classical music of Vivaldi and some instructions on how to draw a mystery drawing. You do your best to draw what we describe. There's a good chance you will draw something other than what we are imagining, but that's ok. The important thing is we are hanging out, listening to calm music and drawing together.

✪ We hope you enjoy our music and games for preschoolers, kindergarteners and early elementary age kids! It's like a music lesson for kids you can listen to in your sleep. April Fools! Awake is better.
