Reading The Power of Fun by Katherine Price has been such a treat. At my recital last spring I had the joy of presenting the following ideas from her book!
In order to have true fun we need to have a variation of these three things: playfulness, connectedness, and flow! With the SQUASHERS of true fun being judgement and distraction. Let's all just take a minute to silence our cell phones... or better yet forget them in random places until you have a need to communicate with a person a live human being.
Well I can say that my students and I had a lovely recital and I hope that the audience and performers found the fun! One of my favorite additions I did this spring was a selfie after each grouping performed!
