Thanks guys...good suggestions.

We had a rehearsal tonight and tried out a couple of them with a plan to get a few kids up on stage on rubboard , T-fer and 'shakers'...

Re: Re: Re: Kids Gig

Kids love music and love to do things. Have them participate as musicians for part of the program. Pass out rythm instruments, shakers, rythm sticks, small jingle bells in a piece of leather, small drums (oatmeal containers) and invite them to join in. Teach a sinple dance and have them dance. Have their parents join in.

Teachem to second line, New Orleans style, wave white handkerchief in right hand, twirl minature umbrella in left hand while following on behind the other. Play Mardi Gras Mambo for proper atmosphere.
