Listen Later

Teaching preschool can be a joyful (and sometimes challenging) experience, but with the right tools, it can be incredibly rewarding! 🎶 In this week’s training, I’m sharing my best strategies and music activities for preschool that help you create a classroom routine to keep those little learners engaged and excited. We’ll talk about setting up a daily structure, using fun themes to guide your lessons, and covering skills that not only support music development but also help preschool teachers meet curriculum goals.

Members of The Happy Music Teacher Academy get exclusive access to trainings just like this one every month, filled with practical ideas and resources tailored to their classrooms. In this episode, you’ll also discover some of my favorite storybooks to use with music activities for preschool, perfect for keeping young children captivated and learning. Whether you’re looking to refresh your approach or are new to teaching preschool, this episode will inspire you to bring fresh energy into your classroom and make music a magical part of every child’s day.
