Melody Monkey in Wyre Forest, Redditch and Wychavon
Date: 01 September 2006 - 25 July 2007
Melody Monkey's Marvellous Music Box is continuing to be very popular with Early Years groups. In 2006/7 Singworks ran Melody Monkey projects in Wyre Forest, Redditch and Wychavon, supported by Worcestershire Youth Music and Worcestershire Early Years and Childcare Service
Representatives from eight pre-school groups in each district attended a short training programme on music making with Early Years children, using Melody Monkey’s Marvellous Music Box. As well as taking part in three training sessions away from the children, trainees worked with a professional musician, who made eight visits to each participating pre-school group. During the early visits, the musician led music-making sessions with the children. The Early Years practitioners at the settings gradually began to take part by leading songs and musical games. By the end of the programme, the trainees were sufficiently experienced to lead the whole session. They will continue leading music-making sessions with the children beyond the life of the programme. Each participating group was given its own Melody Monkey Box to keep.
