Drumagination

"Drumagination" by Dave Holland is the perfect resource for music teachers, music therapists and drum circle facilitators. This book works well for all levels, from elementary grades and up. Fun and unique ideas are presented to incorporate song and interactive play into drum circles, music classes, or music therapy sessions. Activities include playing games, story games, movement games, and circle songs. A DVD is included that demonstrates each activity. The activities are divided into 3 primary sections:
Breaking the Ice (icebreakers, warm-ups, and activities designed to introduce participants to the interactive rhythm-making experience)
Making Connections (These activities are designed to make connections on a one to one level and include tapping a neighbor's drum or making eye contact)
Shaking It Up (This section features games and songs designed to bring energy, fun, and a new level of group connectivity in the rhythm-making session)
