Innovative Ways to Complement Your Kid's Singing Class

Innovative Ways to Complement Your Kid's Singing
Class
2
You have finalized your little one up for a songs
category, and they really like participating. For
that hour or half hour each week, your little one
is free to dance, bang drums, squeal, and sing.
They laugh, coo, stick out their slobbery tongue,
and do many other adorable things that you do not
get to see every day.
3
If you learn how to supplement those weekly music
classes at home, you could actually see all of
those adorable behaviors on a daily basis.
4
Following are some creative ideas to get you
started.

• Create a Music Room

• Make a Daily Time for Music

• Regular Talent Shows

5
Part of what makes music class so fun is the
assortment of instruments that children are
exposed to. One week you may be banging drums
together, but the next week you might be touching
a banjo or listening to the guitar being played
while you sing together. 
Create a Music Room
6
You can recreate that magic in your own home by
setting up a music room of your own. Your baby
will quickly associate that room with the
happiness of music, and their faces will light up
when the door opens.
7
It is expensive to do this, so focus on starting
out with some cheaper, smaller instruments.
Smaller children may even use pots and pans,
wooden spoons, and other household items as
starter instruments. You can find instruments at
yard sales and on Craigslist as well.

Make a Daily Time for Music
9
Work music into your daily routine, so you are
playing music and enjoying it at a given time
each day. This might be listening to fun
children's songs in the bathroom during bath time
(do not put it too close to the tub), or it might
be dancing around the kitchen as you make dinner.
Dinnertime is actually a great time for music, as
your child will enjoy helping you cook as they
grow older.
10
This should become a daily tradition, so music
becomes a natural part of your little one's
world. Incorporate themes and lessons taught
during your music class, and your child will
quickly grasp what is being taught during those
lessons.

Regular Talent Shows
12
Family talent nights are a blast for everyone!
This is something a smaller baby may not
completely grasp, but as they grow older, they
will enjoy and look forward to performing on
these family fun nights.
13
This gives children a chance to process, practice
and display things they are learning through
their music class. Rather than just learning in
the class then going home and forgetting music
until next week, they will actually grow in their
love of music as they get this performance
experience in a safe, supportive environment.
That will do wonders for their self-confidence
and help them even in adulthood.
14
Think of your own Innovative ways to Complement
the lessons being taught in singing class. You
will help them learn through music what other
children may never learn at all.
