Full list of games

BALLOON BOP
Form guests into a circle with an adult leader in the middle with a balloon. Each guest will have a chance to hit the balloon to keep it up, but here's the catch.
The leader will call out the person's name and a body part, and they must use that body part to hit the balloon upwards to keep it in play.
You can use hands, feet, knee, elbow, head, and hips or butt. Players who use the wrong body part or let the balloon fall to the ground are out. The last player standing with the
balloon in play is the winner.
CATCH THE BALLOON
Gather children in a circle around the adult leader.
Toss a balloon in the air and call one child's name. That child must catch the balloon before it touches the ground. If the child succeeds, she gets to toss the balloon and call the next name

Games, Children, and Piano
What are some practical games a piano teacher can use? That's a frequent question that piano teachers and parents write me and ask about.

Games are an indispensable resource of the inventive, patient piano teacher. The reasons are several. Children's psychology demands that you adopt a light-hearted approach to learning, in order to gain their trust and interest. Attention spans are short, and the teacher must know when to let the student rest and then later seize the right moment for learning.
Another reason for piano games is pacing. Piano lessons can grow tedious quickly while difficult parts are refined and repeated. A wise teacher will try his student's patience with care and as little as possible, and after doing so will reward them with playful learning piano
