Celebrating Week of the Young Child Rock n Roll style for Music Monday. Thank you Morenci Pride Band for coming over and playing for us, teaching us about your instruments, and having some fun with us.
When children sing, dance, and listen to music, they develop their language and early literacy and motor skills.
Week of The Young Child has officially started and our littlest Wildcats are enjoying being Rockstars!
