The Orff Music Education and Research Center sets up music courses for 2-6 years old, allowing children to use listening, speaking, singing, dancing and playing in music, pictures, dance, drama, literature and other artistic activities. It can be expressed in various forms such as playing and playing to develop imagination and obtain balanced development of physical functions, thinking, interpersonal relationships, self-awareness, space and other aspects from various musical elements.

3. Listen to the introduction of the story. Yaya and Hahaha are good friends, but due to some reasons, Hahaha moved last year. Yaya missed Haha very much. Next week is Haha's birthday, so Yaya decided to go to Haha's new home to celebrate her birthday, so he set off with gifts.
Before setting off, my good friend Haha also drew a route map for Yaya, but she was confused and couldn’t understand it. Let’s help Yaya look at that route map. Can you help her find Haha's house?
4. Understand the music structure and create dance moves step by step.
1. Show the whole picture of Yaya’s walking path, and start playing music to guide the children to form a coordination between the graphics and the music.
2. How does Yaya walk? Ask the children to create Yaya’s walking movements. Listen to the music and the children and the teacher do the Yaya walking movements together. (Play the first part of the main theme music)
3. Show pictures of two mountains. The teacher asked: How many mountains are in front of Yaya? The mountain is too high for Yaya to climb up, so she has to dig into a cave.
4. Inspire children to create the action of Yaya drilling into a cave and the action of looking left and right and haha. Invite the children to come to the front and perform the movements (drill into the cave--look around--drill into the cave--look around). The teacher demonstrates the movements and performs the movements with the children.
5. Listen to the music and the children and the teacher do the movements of digging into the cave together and looking at each other from left to right. (Play the second part of the main melody music)
