Can a giraffe dance?

Ask your child to draw a range of different animals on small pieces of paper, focusing on their physical characteristics and how they move.

Play a piece of your favourite music or turn the radio on.

Ask your child to pick an animal that best represents the song.

For example, if the song has a strong drum beat, it might remind them of a frog hopping.

A slow piece of music might remind them of an elephant walking slowly and swaying its trunk.

The music might have contrasting sections, so two or more animals might represent the different parts.
