Black Stretchy Fabric For Music

[Guest]

I have a large piece of stretchy black fabric that came with a movement and music kit. I am informed that it is used for certain songs by the children sitting in a circle, holding it and moving it in time to the music.

 

Has anyone used one of these before and do you know which songs work well?

Never had one of those, but we do use the parachute to do ring 'o ring 'o roses, we walk round in a circle holding the parachute to finish off our parachute play and we have tried it use it for wheels on the bus, we have tried to get the children to "thread" the parachute between their hands so that the parachute moves round, - that was a tricky concept to get over!!!

Is from the Jabadao pack?

 

We usually sit in a circle and stretch it out then let go. Stretch it out then the children take turns going under and push up to make bumps with hands, feet, head, elbows, bottoms, knees etc while the other children guess.
