Having a degree in International Cultural Studies, I am a sucker for any activity that introduces Krew and I to different cultures. Friends Fiona and Kindsay invited us and we have gone a few times to an Afrikan drum class where we drum, sing, and dance our little hearts out following the instructor. They have little drums for babies and big drums for mommies.
The instructor tells us that a baby is in its mommy's belly for 9 months with a constant rhythm. We continue a rhythm throughout life and everything we do is to a beat.
Krew was a little shocked by the loud drums at first but he's getting the hang of it. And I enjoy it just as much or more than he does. :)

I couldn't help but think of the sex in the city episode where Charlotte takes Carrie to an african drum aerobics class--and picture you doing what they were doing--dancing! Hahaha. Looks fun, and I'm sure kids LOVE making so much noise and not being told no!
You are such a pretty Momma! This is so great that you are getting your son involved in these kinds of activities! He is going to be so well rounded
You are cute and I love your blog!

Lindsay I think it's so great that you're exploring cultural activities together! I love the bit about being in the womb with 9mos of rhythm and continuing that - no wonder rhythm is so soothing!
