Blow Dryer Box Tutorial
Downloaded from: http://aprimarysingingtime.blogspot.com/2013/01/blow-dryer-box-tutorial.html My dear friend (and Primary Music Leader predecessor) made this AWESOME blow dryer box last year. The idea is that you insert something easily blown (silk flowers, leaves, etc) with songs written on them, then let the kids have turns sticking their arms in and trying to ‘catch’ a song. Liz kindly gave her box to me, but suggested I make a new one since hers was…

My Heavenly Father Loves Me

A few years ago I came across this beautiful arrangement of My Heavenly Father Loves Me by Lyle Hadlock. He composes and arranges beautiful music, check out his website. This arrangement is for vocal, piano and flute and it’s simple enough that the kids won’t be confused. I love the key change and the ending, simple and perfect. And it’s free. Thank you Lyle Hadlock!
When I’ve taught this song in the past I’ve used objects. See the list below. There are a couple of ways to do this.
1) Put the objects on a table. Sing the first line, have the kids repeat. Choose a child to pick the object that goes with that phrase and stand in line at the front of the room. Continue with the next line. This is great for Junior Primary.
2) Just start singing and handing out the objects as you go. Do the first four lines and then have the children sing with you and the kids holding the objects try to get themselves in order at the front of the room. Sing it again to see if they got it right. Then do the same for the rest of the verse. This is geared more toward Senior Primary.
Whenever I hear the song of a bird stuffed animal bird
Or look at the blue, blue sky, blue fabric that can be waved above the head
Whenever I feel the rain on my face small spray bottle set on mist
Or the wind as it rushes by, hand fan
Whenever I touch a velvet rose fake rose
Or walk by our lilac tree, fake lilac branch or just a branch
I’m glad that I live in this beautiful world small globe
Heav’nly Father created for me. child pointing to himself
Or look at the blue, blue sky, blue fabric that can be waved above the head
Whenever I feel the rain on my face small spray bottle set on mist
Or the wind as it rushes by, hand fan
Whenever I touch a velvet rose fake rose
Or walk by our lilac tree, fake lilac branch or just a branch
I’m glad that I live in this beautiful world small globe
Heav’nly Father created for me. child pointing to himself
He gave me my eyes that I might see glasses or child pointing to their eyes
The color of butterfly wings. toy butterfly
He gave me my ears that I might hear child pointing to their ears
The magical sound of things. small bell or instrument
He gave me my life, my mind, my heart: mirror
I thank him rev’rently child folding arms as if praying
For all his creations, of which I’m a part. clear container filled with small toy animals, fruit, plants, etc.
Yes, I know Heav’nly Father loves me. paper or stuffed heart
The color of butterfly wings. toy butterfly
He gave me my ears that I might hear child pointing to their ears
The magical sound of things. small bell or instrument
He gave me my life, my mind, my heart: mirror
I thank him rev’rently child folding arms as if praying
For all his creations, of which I’m a part. clear container filled with small toy animals, fruit, plants, etc.
Yes, I know Heav’nly Father loves me. paper or stuffed heart
