Fall 2018 Music & Movement: Week Three 9/19/18

Today I blew some toddler and preschool minds when I introduced the new big projection screen that was recently installed in our meeting room.  We have a screen in our story room that I use, but I never have in Music & Movement because we need the downstairs room because of space issues.  It adds a whole new element to the proceedings.  Plus I hear were're going wireless so I will soon have surround sound.  Oh yeah, things are going to get interesting!
