The Children’s Health Guides continued to train all the children, sending them many Musical Health Gifts. This time, their Musical Health Gift was the Moray Eel, which not only taught them flexibility, but also the ability to cultivate courage. This second week began with the Eel appearing to Peter in the morning.
“Don’t be afraid of me, Peter!” the Eel exclaimed, “I don’t attack people. Since ancient times, scary stories have been told about me, but actually I’m just a sea dweller who feeds on other sea life. The most important quality I can bring is courage. In the depths of the ocean, where there is hardly any light, I go fearlessly to find my seafood. I always feel brave because of my double teeth, which none of the other sea animals I mix with have. I not only teach you flexibility, but also how to have courage. Follow my movements and feel the fire of courage grow in yourself. After you master my moves, you can then perform them in the pool! You can even study Eels on the internet, and maybe find out how we eat. Don’t forget to show your parents my flexible movements and how you’re learning to express courage.”
The Eel song sounded.
Read the fairytale.
Wriggling see him smile, moray eel came for a while with his open mouth! Sharp teeth open mouth!
Moray Eel is wriggling moray eel is head holding with his big sharp teeth! With his big sharp teeth!
Clapping, clapping, clapping head holding and sliding here I am! Here I am! Wriggling and smiling
my mouth opens I am moving now! Moving now!
Wriggling see him smile moray eel came for a while with his open mouth! Sharp teeth open mouth! Moray eel is wriggling, moray eel is head holding with his big sharp teeth! With his big sharp teeth!
Clapping, clapping, clapping head holding and standing here I am! Here I am!
Wonderful! And now I’ll introduce you to the next the task with Viola the daughter of music. Today we will learn the second great magic of music – The Magic of Melody. Let’s have some fun and see if you can sing the melody of my song with your mouth closed. If you sing the melody correctly, or as musicians say – cleanly, you will hear the sound of Viola’s bell.
Peter closed his mouth and sang the melody. Before he could finish, the sound of a bell rang out. Viola greeted Peter with the second magic of music – The Magic of Melody.
As soon as the Eel disappeared, Peter immediately closed the curtains, creating a darkness in the room as if he was in the depths of the ocean, and then he wriggled and crawled along the floor. Smoothly turning his head in different directions. At the same time, he imagined double teeth inside his mouth, and felt the fearless power of courage!
After that, Peter made a drawing of the Moray Eel, and put it in his Book of Musical Health, which already had his previous drawing of Medusa the Jellyfish. He tested his flexibility, as he did at the Early Years Health Games and it turned out that after doing the flexibility movements with the Eel, his flexibility had improved by several centimeters.
Peter was excited now to draw a new costume for his family’s fitness centre – The Moray Eel costume. It was a big drawing of a rubber suit with a moray eel head and a hole for the face where he could poke his face out. He clipped it to himself whilst he crawled on the floor, enjoying his new found sense of courage and flexibility.
Listen to the song and imagine yourself as an Eel.
