Now as you mastered rhyme to grime and hip hop. Let me share another skill, how to beatbox. Now I'm not an expert, but I brought one with me, introducing the incredible beatboxer, Kimmy! Kimmy, can I get a beat please?
An easy game to play is stop and go. Good for tiny babies so they get to know, the difference betwee nsound and no sound so Kimmy are you ready to have a go now?
Stop. Go! Stop. Go! Stop. Go! Stop.
So try this at home with your baby around, it helps them to learn how to process sounds. Try it while cleaning up or changing a nappy. Make your kicks sound full! And your snare sound snappy. You'll find kids can copy your beatbox melody, it's likely to improve their auditory memory. That's ability to listen, and reproduce sounds that they've heard. Beatbox gives them a boost. Now you know how to make a mouth composition get to beatboxing for anyone who listens ,the neighbour, the builder, the lollipop lady but most importantly, your beautiful baby.
Games where you tell your baby to 'stop' and 'go!' are great for building their listening skills. You can try it with all sorts of things they're playing with like banging pots and pans.
You could even try it by getting them to copy your beatboxing, stopping and going again whenever you say so.
