Title: Spoonful of Sugar
Performers: Julie Andrews aka Mary Poppins
Culture/Origin: American Musical Theater/Hollywood/Disney
Orchestration: Voice, Orchestra
Reaction: While reading about Musical Play and the clean up song, I couldn't help but think about this song. By making a tedious and icky task into a game with music, children learn to associate fun with tasks generally seen as, well, not fun. It also serves as a learning tool for children, teaching them how to work together to clean up a mess or get a task done as well as that sometimes you need to complete tasks you may not initially wish to complete.
