I also have singing time for the nursery, but I just go in for 5 minutes or so. We all sit down in our chairs, and I begin. Because they are so young, some of them just sit and watch me while the others get involved. We sing 5 to 6 songs, then I'm done. I guess I could be adding some visuals to it, but with up to 20 little ones, I have to stay ahead of them and not have too much time in between the songs. I do it at the beginning of Sr primary Sharing time, and have plenty of time to get a drink, etc. before Sr singing time (third hour). We have combined opening exercises at the very beginning of Primary which makes a difference.

> Okay, so after almost 3 years as the Primary Chorister running 2 music times each day I was just approached and told that I am now also the Nursery Chorister for 2 nurseries. So 20 minutes in Jr Prim, run to Sr. Nurs. for 10-15 minutes, run back to Sr. Prim for 20 minutes, run to Jr. Prim for 10-15 minutes, run back to Sr. Prim for closing exercises! That's 2-4 different music lessons each week! Is anyone else doing this and how do you do it?? I've never done a nursery music time and have no idea how they should go. Does anyone have an outline of how they use the time for the small kids? I know there should be wiggle songs and then some songs about their lesson??
