Sprouting Melodies Weekly
Notes from Kristina

Can't Sit Still                                                     March 22, 2016

Good morning, 

As some of you know, I was out sick with laryngitis last week for my Wednesday Sprouting Melodies classes. Thank you all for being so flexible with the sudden cancellation. A makeup session will be offered for both of my classes on Wednesday April 27th, or you can call the office to schedule a make up this week. 

Here is a song called "Can't Sit Still" by Elizabeth Schwartz, co-founder of Sprouting Melodies, that's all about that itch to move! I know I was feeling just that way staying home without a voice for a few days! Young children often crave movement and energy, and as adults sometimes we need them to do just the opposite. This song will help you to balance both the needs of your child as well as your needs!
