Talents

Savannah has a great ear for music. She has always had rhythm and can feel the beat. This really gives one a head start when it comes to playing an instrument or dancing. She's fortunate to be able to do both. She's a star Irish dancer and prances around the house all week in preparation for the following week's lesson. The piano is a comfortable place for her to be and she loves to express herself through music. She has reached the stage now, where her sight reading is good enough for her to tackle learning new pieces all on her own. We are amazed at how quickly and effortly she learns new songs.

Madison is the puzzle girl of the family. No one else in the family really enjoys puzzles just as much as she does. She can see things we can't and plugs the pieces together with ease. Numbers and letters and books draw her attention too.

She teaches Savannah the art of puzzle building and in return, Savannah teaches her dance steps and basic piano pieces. Great team work! Here are a few pictures of the girls expressing their talents during our recent holiday. Our favourite is to sit in the sunlight in our lounge and create or read or simply relax.
