The second version of rhythmic games was called “Babble Stone” and the participants were asked to repeat a
rhythm pattern that the music therapist played on the floor with beating two babble stones just after her. The bubbles
stones we were using for this activity were hand palm big, but still in different sizes, and colors. After the group
understood the game, the music therapist asked each participant to take a turn creating their own rhythm pattern for
the larger group to copy. This game included creativity as well as social interaction through turn taking. Listening to
each other and giving value to each other’s idea through repeating-imitating the patterns was also important. It
demonstrated the acceptance by other group members of the individuals’ creative idea as well as the non-judgmental
nature of the group. This helped develop feelings of support and being an indispensible part of a group.
