Take Me Down to the Second Line - Workshop Two - "Roll Wit Me” (Social Skills)

Preschoolers tend to garner attention wherever they go. Our little celebrities need friends. Relationships are the building blocks of healthy development. Learn how to nurture your child’s innate desire for social connection this week during our YALA ArtsPlay!™ workshop, using call and response chants that give young children the opportunity to practice active listening and effective communication. They will imitate, explore the voice, and gain confidence in singing together.
