Ball Notes Game!
“Before we play the game with the cards, let’s play a quick Ball Notes game first.
Let’s say or sing C D E while throwing the ball to each other.” the Music Fairy picked a light ball.
“C”, she started and threw the ball to me. “D”, I continued and threw the ball back, “E”, the Fairy finished and threw the ball back to me.
Buddy, you can do pretend-play Ball Notes with me or your friend, and then continue reading the story after you finish playing.
“Now let’s say it backwards: E D C. Let’s play it a few times: first slow and then faster”, the Fairy suggested.
Sounded like fun. I threw the ball to Music Fairy while saying “C”. “D”, yelled the Fairy and threw the ball back to me. “E”, I said and threw the ball to the Fairy.
“Faster now.” the Music Fairy threw the ball to me while saying “C”. “D”, I yelled and threw the ball back to the Fairy. “E”, the Fairy yelled and threw the ball to me.
We played the Ball Notes game 5 times! How about you?
Go ahead, buddy, and have fun.
It would make it even more fun, if you can go up the steps for each new key when playing C, D, E, and down when playing E, D, C.
“Now you are ready to play the Tricky Music Notes Game”, the Music Fairy was laughing now.
