It seems as if there are never enough auditory sense works for the Sensorial area (other than the sound cylinders and the expensive bells). It's easily neglected. "Forest Sound Bingo" was a work I created for matching the sound to the picture using bingo chips (actually I "borrowed" the chips from my kids' Connect Four game). I found various forest sounds (animals, insects, storms, etc.) from the internet and put them on a CD. I then made different bingo cards with pictures of the animals. While making the CD I had iTunes pause a few seconds between sounds and also repeat the sound to give the children extra time to find the match. This is another work I have not put out yet this year, but have in the past. The kids enjoyed this work. At the time I did not have headphones, so the one thing I had to watch out for was that the sound was never up too loud as to bother other's working nearby. This year we have a new CD player with four headphone jacks - I can't wait to try it with the Forest bingo game! Happy Holidays! I hope to use some of this time off to create more works.
