Fingerplays are an easy and free way to bond with your child. Not only do they allow you to have precious teaching moments with your child, they also help to equip your kiddo for preschool or daycare. However, perhaps you are like many parents who are unsure of what a fingerplay is or why they are important, let alone where to begin using them.

My name is JoEllyn Sumner and I am a certified Prenatal, Early Childhood, and K-12 Music Educator.  I'm also a parental music coach, and I'm here to help you navigate musical play at every developmental stage from prenatal through preschool with your child at home.

In this episode, I remind you of some common fingerplays, explain the value of fingerplays, and why they are important and what specifically fingerplays support in the development of a child.
