As well, the rhythmic games which involved marching, crawling, flying, skipping and tip-toeing were all included in the experiment. The experiments consisted two parts which were "body movement section"and "rhythm section". The two hundred participants were equally given the pre-test and post-test as factors of progress of the research and the researcher then compared with the differences of the two tests of the two groups before and after the experiment to ses if there were any progress in their rhythmical learning.
