First and foremost is that I love playing for children! They offer a world of enthusiasm and a sense of wonder, and it's my desire and my job to meet them there. I know the show is going well when I'm playing with them. For the children to be actively involved in the program is of utmost importance, and the key to this is sustaining their interest. We play games, they help me sing songs and participate physically (Clap, stomp, spin, hop....) Children love to try the banjo and each child gets that opportunity. As I share the history of the banjo's origins they get a glimpse into American history.
Some Kids Love to sing!
