MELODY - ICE BLOCK SOLFEGE

Paint 16 wooden blocks white and let them dry.  I prefer the 2" size over other options.  Once dry, add solfege letters on the blocks.  This is determined by the group that you would like to use the blocks with.  Have the children roll the blocks to create a 4 4-beat melody.  Add a simply winter song as an "A" sectino and invite children to sing their melody to create a rondo activity.  When I am finished with my blocks, I simply place them on the shelf and place my penguin puppet on top!
