Leap to it! -

Leap to it! Leap Day will soon be here.

These special holidays are fun to celebrate – especially since I can pull out a four year old file of ideas, add a few updates and be ready to run a session. So let’s leap into the ideas.

Preschoolers

Honesty, I have not lead a Leap Day music centered group for children, but I think from what I found searching the internet, it looks like jumping and frogs are biggies

I think this is a great day to use songs about leaping and frogs. Here are a few ideas:

Five Little Speckled Frogs
Hmm, Hmm Went the Little Green Frog
Froggy In the Bathtub
Clap Your Hands (by They Might be Giants)
Jump (by Patty Shukla)
