My coworker was recently called as primary chorister so we swap ideas and share our successes and whatnot. Today, she told me that last week her primary made "Apple Pie".
Supplies:
-Apple shaped cutouts
-Posterboard tree (or maybe a mini-tree where you could hang the cutouts?)
-Wooden spoon
-Chef hat
-Apron
-Pie pan
Make or buy a bunch of apple shaped cutouts and on the back write the names of songs you want to sing/review. My coworker bought a posterboard and cutout a big tree, though if you have a mini-tree you could use that. When it was singing time, she informed the children that they were going to make apple pie! Doning a chef hat and apron (and once she got into it, she started using a silly french accent to), she called on a child to come up and pick an apple off the tree. They then sung the song on the back with the child who picked the apple using a big wooden spoon to lead the song. Afterwards the apple was placed in a pie pan and another child was chosen.
I thought this sounded like such a FUN idea! I may try it for a review week sometime! Now, she didn't mention what they did at the end of it, but I imagine the kids just felt rewarded by picking all the apples. Maybe you could make a handout for them as a reward? I personally wouldn't bring apple pie or a treat, but that's me i guess.
