Creative ideas for music at home!

3/25/2020

Parents across the country and around the world are now being tasked with the responsibility of keeping their children engaged in online school.  Here are a few (fun) ideas to keep your kids excited about designated music time: 
  1. Dress as your favorite musician! Let your student use their device to search their favorite singer, band, instrumentalist, etc. Then, give them 10 minutes to go through their clothes and make an outfit inspired by their favorite musician. Have them explain exactly how each piece they chose relates to their musician of choice! 
  2. Make a musical instrument! Ex. Cardboard guitar, Harmonica, Can Drums, Tambourine, Xylophone, Rainstick, Banjo! 
  3. Soundtrack of your life! Students can create an album (read: playlist) that showcases who they are! Make a playlist of songs that remind them of a special time in their life. 
  4. Film YouTube Karaoke! Using your phone, record your student singing along with a YouTube Karaoke video. Then, send it to relatives to cheer them up! 
  5. Drawing to Music! This is a great way to help students process the sounds they hear. What does an upbeat rock jam look like when you draw it? What colors would you use? What does a slow, violin piece sound like and what colors, shapes or images would you use to draw the sounds you hear? 

We hope this page helps you plan a musical activity that is low stress for you, and big fun for your student! Please comment on this post with your success stories, questions, or more ideas!
