Hands To Hands
From Beatin' Path Publications
by Aimee Curtis PfitznerHand Clapping Songs And Games From Around The World
Hands To Hands was collected from music teachers from around the world. These hand clapping games are universal; some are familiar, some are brand new. Rhythmic play with songs and chants is the instinctive music language of children. This collection is filled with high-energy and engaging materials all ages will enjoy. Each song and clapping game is engraved with unique body percussion notation making it easy to prepare the activities for students. Formations, dance steps, or other special instructions are included in each song and game.
Supplemental materials are available online. Included are full color visuals suitable for presentation stations and links to videos of children playing many of the games, as well as "How-to" videos from Aimee for some of the more complicated clapping patterns.
