The journey of the Magi

This is a two part unit focusing on the journey of the Magi - the Three Kings - on their way to find the baby Jesus in the Christmas story. In the first dance session we focus on star and king walking actions where rhythm and working together is particularly important. In the second session the Kings present their gifts and celebrate with skipping and star-jumping.
