Tuesday song share

This week is one I call the pirate song! I actually learnt it at baby rhyme time at the library when my first one was tiny.

A brilliant lap bouncer for babies, but still lots of fun for older children too. It’s great for:

• counting up
• feeling a steady beat
• actions!

Anyone know the 'proper' name for this one?!

We're delighted to welcome violinist Joanne Green back to Tiddlygigs on Saturday 13th June!

Many of you will remember Joanne from last year, when she had us all tiptoeing around the church to her pizzicato playing and following her on a trip around the church.

Join us for another relaxed morning of live music, specially designed for young children and their families, followed by refreshments and cake as always.

• Saturday 13th June
• 10am
• St James Church, Taunton

Tickets are available now, and thanks to support from Groundwork UK and the ESG Robinson Family Trust, we also have free tickets available for families who need them.

Very excited to finally start sharing a bit more about my brand new Tiddlygigs Storytime… Tiddalik the Frog!

Based on the Australian fairytale, this new interactive story is full of live music, storytelling and audience participation.

Our first performance will be on 6th August at Taunton Brewhouse, followed by two days performing at Taunton Flower Show.

Autumn term dates and venues will be announced soon… including hopefully a brand new venue.

Tuesday song share 🎶

A slightly different way to do a well known song today… Wind the Bobbin Up with your feet!

This is a lovely one for babies with the advantage of winding them too! Toddlers love it too and might even be able to do it themselves. My 6 year old would still happily let me do this now though. 😂

Wheels on the Bus is another one that works really well like this. Can you think of any others?

A few little moments from this morning's concert with Duo Correa Andrews 🎶

We had such a lovely time exploring music all about birds, with lots of different flutes. Thank you so much to everyone who came along.

I think my favourite bit was the song with the coo-ing dove!

Keep an eye out for details of June's concert coming soon and our summer plans!

Song share - the clock song!

This is a bit of a tricky one to sing, but children can keep the beat by making clock hands with their arms or joining in with the actions to the beat.

A great song for hellos and goodbyes in your setting or classes and for warming the children (and adults!) up with other actions.

We’ve got a new website!

It’s a bit clearer about what we actually do (concerts, classes, school visits) and should hopefully make everything easier to find.
You can now book straight from the website too, bookwhen is fully integrated, so no jumping between pages.
There’s also a new FAQs section with answers to things people often ask before coming along.

Have a look and let me know what you think!
