I sing and work out Kynigou Flambouras Maria

"As many years as we have been or will be mothers and teachers around children, we see that as many songs and games as we know, they are really not enough. We always need to have something new. Of course, this renewal is not only needed for children. It is also necessary for us personally. The problem with children's songs is that often, in order not to be boring, the melody varies with more notes and thus becomes difficult for children's abilities. The same happens with the rhythm.

We are still looking to find some poetic words and so at the end the teacher sings (if she also has the right voice) and the children follow with a suspicion of melody, perhaps without understanding what they are saying and without being as happy as they should be. But the songs are for the child to sing out loud and not to mumble or say a word here and there or the ending of the verse. [...]

Singing is therapy. It is an outlet and is the child's companion in his expression. Movement, too, is a primary element in the development, entertainment, and discipline of the child, both nervously and muscularly. The rhythm, even as a simple uniform beat, gives incredible stimuli to the child, who reacts correctly with his imagination and spontaneity in his movement. We can therefore by uniting melody, rhythm and movement have this ideal combination with very simple means.
