My favourite time of the day at the moment is when I dry my 4yo dd's hair. There is something about the noise of the hairdryer and the presence of the full-length mirror that seem to give her permission to sing her heart out!
And she doesn't just sing... she improvises. And dances. And performs monologues in role. And sings her heart out some more.
And then the hairdryer turns off and she stops :(
It makes me sad that she feels unable to express herself in this way when she is aware of an audience (me). How can I encourage her?
