Made this WunderKeys Preschool Book 2 ear-training activity into a Halloween game by saying each of our coins was a trick-or-treater going either to Ringo Racooon's house or Middleton Mouse's house for candy! J said our trick-or-treaters were dressed as a ninja, a bat, a witch, a vampire, and a pumpkin. Love engaging preschool imagination in lessons! 🥷🦇🧙‍♀️🧛‍♂️🎃

The studio may still be decorated for Halloween, but believe it or not, it's time to start planning Christmas music! We won't be playing it JUST yet, but this is the week we start pulling out last year's books and seeing if we need to order new ones. Students and parents, make sure to check your lesson notes this week for info about what Christmas books you'll need this holiday season!

Preschool lesson kitty snuggles! Albus is seriously the sweetest, gentlest, best studio cat ever!

A studio-favorite game, Marshmallow Mummies, made extra fun with REAL marshmallows! Albus was very interested! 🤣

Rhys had a visitor in the studio for his practice time this morning! Uncle Jon got a mini-concert of Disney songs, a lesson in note reading, and even played our favorite Halloween ear training game! (Escape from Zombie Acres from )

More fun Halloween treats in the studio this week! AND more fun Halloween manicures!

Today I actually instructed a preschool student to make a round hand shape "just like this skeleton hand"! The things we'll say to get a point across! (Oh, and it worked!)🤣💀

M's beautiful rendition of The Semplice Session (again by Andrea Dow at WunderKeys Piano Method Books ) lulled Tom Servo into a sweet sleep at her lesson yesterday! M has really grown in her expression and musicianship in recent months and her delicate work on this piece really shows off her talents!

We played a very festive duet in G minor in M's lesson this week (by the wonderful Andrea Dow at WunderKeys Piano Method Books ). Our Halloween manis DEFINITELY helped us play our spooky piece a little better, I think!
🎃👻🕷🕸🧟‍♂️💅

This will be the view for online students this month! Studio is decked out, but online kiddos don't get the full effect!

Albus cuddles are fairly common in the studio, but as soon as it's cool enough for me to bring out my favorite fuzzy blanket, he is sure to make an appearance and claim his place on my lap!
