Jack and Jill
by Warren
(Sydney)
Jack and Jill is just one of so many rhymes that are a lot of fun and this one always intrigued me from when I was little. How do you mend a head with "vinegar and brown paper"? How strange. Maybe Jill (jillsmusic !!) you can enlighten me.
I always remembered this rhyme when I had tumbled out of my billy cart after going down what I thought was a really steep hill made of gravel stones and dirt. As an adult I have returned to that hill and it isn't as steep as I remember - and I still remembered the rhyme when I stood there - isn't that interesting!!
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after.
Up Jack got and home did trot
As fast as he could caper;
And went to bed to mend his head
With vinegar and brown paper.

“I really enjoy the connections that develop through the shared music experience over the long term, between adult-child, child-child and child-teacher.
The journey to independence is a fascinating process as children find their own voice.” ~Jill
"My
two children have participated in the Macquarie University Early Childhood
Music Program for 2 - 5 year olds under the expert teaching and guidance
of Jill. Jill's multi-talent abilities of singing, playing a variety of
instruments and early childhood education make her a very qualified and
valued music teacher. My children have flourished under her auspices and
really enjoy music in all forms: singing, dancing and playing instruments.
I would recommend any child to participate in one of Jill's classes learning
rhythm, pitch etc in an environment full of fun and creativity."

"Jill
has taught my daughter as part of the Macquarie University's Institute
of Early Childhood's Music Program for Children, both when she was a two
year old and four year old. On both occasions, my daughter has found her
engaging and fun to have as a music teacher. As a parent and fellow music
educator, Jill has a great manner with the children of all ages. Her programs
are thorough and interesting, sequential and challenging, yet achievable
so as to foster the love, enjoyment and creativity of music. Thanks for
a great start to another young person's musical
life Jill!"
