5. Fewer Words, More Music: Music For Kiddos Podcast

The way that we present music to kids is really important because we want to help them to be as successful as possible. Fewer words, more music is all about communicating with music and is not necessarily communicating without words. It means that we are increasing our communication in music so that we can best support kids.  In this episode, you’ll hear about: How to communicate more with music, and less with words in a child-centered manner. Using musical tools such as a melody, chord progressions, and cadences to stack your communication with kids. Ways to include verbal instructions during a song and how to incorporate them musically. The song: Wandering Song Today’s song: “Wandering Song” This is a song that I use to validate children while they're (you guessed it) wandering and gently & kindly provide them with some structure and instructions within the music.
