Nursery rhymes workshop. Mari Hanson and Mari Sarv

Estonia

Working language is Estonian.

We sing together nursery rhymes known in the country people runo song tradition and try to play baby-games together. We speak about the good that children and mother-father get from one or the other song and being together, how the songs and games contribute to the development of the child and to the communication between parents and children. We exchange experiences on how the runo song and our culture could be put into use at different parents’ gatherings and babies’ circles. We explain how to structure a baby circle meeting considering the receptive abilities of the child. We also teach you how to make a simple baby carrying cloth. All mothers-fathers with their babies and toddlers as well as everyone else interested are welcome.
