At the daycare were I work, we use some of these songs, I would love to show the children how to do string games. I would love our Inuktitut to be our main source.

I haven’t heard these songs/activities since elementary school, this is new to me again. My favourite was the “where is thumbs in?”

I have yet to suggest an activity.

This circle time binder brings me back to my childhood hood. Many many favourites, but one of my top fav Activity game was Duck, Duck goose. And my favourite song was and is Quluppaajuusi. We also use most of these song and activities in our daycare.

Reflecting at the GOOD MORNING SONG .

During circle time every morning with my kids, as soon as we begin the GOOD MORNING SONG, there is often an immediate change in the atmosphere children’s faces light up with comfort ,some begin to sing along while others smile.The quite children who are not ready sing out loud enjoy and follow the rhythm and often participate that shows recognize the routine, especially when sang in the Inuit language that they understand.Children feel fulfilled as their names are mentioned, they feel seen , included and welcome. It’s a moment of connection and transition from home to school. To me this song sets a warm positive and welcoming atmosphere, where another child will call out to the teacher sometimes to complain like TEACHER, YOU FORGOT ME. When his name is not mentioned.this song builds their social and emotional development. Improve language , and give the confidence.

GLORY.

During circle time we sometimes listen to those songs

I like making the kids do I’m a little teapot because it makes them stand up for a while, as they get tired of staying in one spot, in my elementary years I use to love this song..

I would love to see more songs added for infants also, they would love to dance or do some dances other then playing toys..
