Rhythm Time Sessions with Sarah

ᴬᵈ This article was written from a visit in 2024 when Leo was 2 at a toddler session.

Firstly, I honestly cannot recommend Sarah enough. It is so clear how passionate she is about her job and her teaching background and passion for music clearly comes through in each session.

I first got introduced to Sarah and Rhythm Time when Leo was 7 months old. After a few trial sessions he loved it! Especially the baby version of the Hokey Cokey this was very cute! Lots of smiles and swinging back and forth towards the other little ones and then lots of colourful disco lights for his eyes to move around and focus on.

Due to a change in work commitments we couldn’t continue but then with a change in days we returned when he was around 2 and got straight back into it, as confident as ever! Although the session was full to capacity, it didn’t feel too busy and nicely spaced out around the mats with a centre area for the little ones to dance on to the songs if they wanted to. I think Sarah has got the maximum number just right.

There was lots of movement and singing with different musical instruments and sensory toys handed out throughout to explore and play alongside the songs and with some guidance on what to do with them. It was perfect for Leo doesn’t like to sit still, he much prefers to bounce about or be doing something like bashing a drum! 🤣

All of the kids seemed totally comfortable too and didn’t feel shy or the need to take part in it all with the same movements, which is brilliant and exactly what it’s about! There were kids enjoying the musical instruments dancing around and then others sat on their parents laps taking it all on. Or some like Leo just doing their own thing at times and then joining in again.

Sarah continued with the singing and dancing and interacting with the kids really well to suit their personality. The songs are super catchy too, a few came back to me from the baby classes we went to when Leo was younger like ‘pop them in the basket, 123!’ I will often still sing this to get Leo to tidy up. It never gets old 😅

There was a giant parachute game for foam balls to be thrown on and for the kids at adults to lift the parachute so they fly high in the air. And then there was another cute hide and seek song that we all sang lifting the parachute up and down, whilst all of the kids ran underneath. A fair few loved this!

Oh and a big hit… most of the kids loved the bubbles at the end! 🫧 The best ending!!
