The Minis started off their rehearsal as normal, with a story, a quick warm-up, and a few songs! Then, they went through their dance for "Waltz of the Flowers", and met the Littles as well as a few of the Youth buddies that were there to sing some of their together songs, like "A Candy Cane Christmas", "Ready Set Christmas", and "Away in a Manger". Then, the Minis went with all their big buddies that were there to do their craft: decorating paper snowflakes!
The Littles continued their rehearsal by singing some of their alone songs like "Russian Dance", then met up with more of the Youth choir plus Children's Choir to sing some of their together songs like "Winter Troika Ride" and "Candy Cane Christmas". After that, they went with their big buddies to do their craft: decorating "gingerbread" people!
The Children's Choir continued their rehearsal by working on their alone songs (which ones, I don't know, I was out in the hall helping my Little buddies), then they met the Youth choir to sing their together songs, like "Joy to the World". After all that, they headed out into the hall to do their craft: wrapping and decorating "gifts" and "candy" to put on the stage during the concert!
The Youth choir finished off the night by making candy cane "flutes", then practising a whole bunch of songs, like "My Favourite Things", "Ding-a-ding-a-ding" and "Joy to the World".
Have a happy Halloween, everyone! I'll see you all next week.
