RHYTHM ACTIVITY Find some wooden chopsticks or wooden mixing spoons and a place to play them - on the deck, bench or kitchen floor. Some classes have seen this before, but it's so much fun.

Maybe you could teach it to someone else in your bubble. https://sites.google.com/view/primarymusicforhomelearning/playing
