Music is Cool!

About a week and a half ago Lisa picked up Tobias from the daycare and they told her that they had a music session that day with a music teacher and everything. Since Tobias still is one of the smallest in the group and sometimes has a hard time with all the bigger children screaming and running around him, they expected a music session to be tough for Tobias.... well.... they thought wrong!

Tobias was in fact the only kid in there who did not cry, but instead thoroughly enjoyed it! All the others were crying and very uncomfortable with the music teacher and the music session. At the daycare they were very surprised at this but as you can imagine (especially if you have been reading this blog in the past) that I was not one bit surprised. Tobias is exposed to music every day. I play the piano or guitar (although not often enough) for him quite a lot. We play a lot of music on the stereo and I sing to Tobias a lot. According to Lisa I also whistle a lot although I am not necessarily aware of that....

Anyway, Tobias has quite some exposure to music and apparently that shows. Here he is banging my bongos, well actually sharing them because he had the small one and I had the big one to bang on, but hey, I had to take a picture... :-) As you can see he is quite into it, eyes closed easing into the music... grooving... and what else (or maybe I just accidentally shot this picture when his eyes were closed...) Posted by Picasa
