The Happy Homemaker

Today I went to Music Makers at the stake building. Music Makers is a music program for toddlers and preschool children in our stake.

First, we have our opening exercise where we sing a song to get to know everyone. There is a thought for the day for the moms and some announcements. Then we have song time in another room where we learn some new songs. Then we have a game and story time back in another room. We have a marching time in the gym where the kids march in a parade to music. Finally we have closing time and say good-bye. Sometimes all the moms will get together and meet at a restaurant like McDonald’s so the kids can play and so the moms can socialize a little bit.

It is not the most fun for moms because the kids fight a lot and spend most of the class crying. The socialization afterwards makes it worth it in the end and the kids end up learning new songs somehow. Jon Jon spent the whole time sitting in the corner with me. I hope he will be more enthusiastic in the future.
