QUEST FOR THE RAINBOW

QUEST FOR THE RAINBOW

Dance and music workshop for 2-6 year olds in Hof

Open dance and music workshop for children aged 2-6 years. Ósk and Grettir Græni from Leitin af regnboganum (e.Quest for the rainbow) are visiting Akureyri and intend to take the children with them into the fairy tale world of Rainbowland. Brand new children's music will be used in the workshop and there will be work with dance, expression, veils, shaking and colors. Ósk and Grettir Græni will lead the children through the story and sing for them. The children get to be active participants in the fairy tale world of "Rainbowland" under professional guidance. The emphasis will be on promoting the development of motor skills, imagination and creativity of the children in the workshop.

The children's album, Leitin af regnboganum (e.quest for the rainbow) was released in the spring of 2024. The music is all original by Máni Svavarsson and Guðnýja Ósk Karlsdóttir. The adventure that is now available for children on Spotify. The album's storyline takes place in Regnbogaland (e.Rainbowland) and the search for the rainbow is the theme of the story. In it, all the colors of the rainbow encounter adventures while searching for the rainbow. Each color represents a certain quality or virtue. The search and journey are intended to show children the importance of courage, gratitude, respect and helpfulness. The music of Regnbogaland (e.Rainbowland) is intended to capture children's attention, strengthen their use of language, activate their imagination and enhance their motor development. Regnbogaland promotes motor development, language development and increases children's imagination and above all, the material is accessible to parents. It should be noted that virtues and empowerment play a key role in the adventure of Regnbogaland. The story and the music go hand in hand in the characters' journey to find the rainbow. The world is a complete image of the children and the story is woven into the songs as I talk to the children in between and introduce all the new colors. The songs therefore all have an important message and in the end the colors find the rainbow together.

The event is supported by the Akureyri City Children's Cultural Fund
