In the class we sing songs, dance, and the twins get to try different instruments. Last week it was sticks. I looked it up and put a picture below, they call them "Rhythm Sticks." They loved the sticks. However, after we sing the song and play the sticks we have to put them away...
Connor and Chloe both went nuts. Crying, running away from the teacher with the box to put the sticks in, utter chaos in music class. It wouldn't have been so bad, but all the other kids in class seem to handle putting the sticks away just fine.
As part of the class we got to take home a CD and a set of sticks for both. The teacher asked us to "practice putting them away." We've practiced and Chloe has gotten pretty good and understands we'll move on to another fun activity. Connor, however, starts to cry. He'll put the sticks away, but he sobs and then he runs over to the wall and bangs his head.
Our next class is in a few hours and I'm afraid we may have more chaos.
