Hot Cross Buns Toddler Music Lesson Plan 5

What you’ll gain by using this teaching resource

1.  Happy and responsive toddlers aged 1-3 who develop their cognitive skills by playfully solving musical problems such as making sound from instruments and keeping up with the beat
2. Wonderful music and movement sessions that are action-packed and designed specifically for those highly mobile toddlers
3. A delightful way to monitor and assess children’s physical development as they handle the instruments, move their small muscles to the beat and move their whole body through space in time with the music
4. Friendly toddlers who learn how to self-regulate their social-emotional expression – so important for self-soothing, gaining confidence and getting along with others
5. Enormous benefits in language development from the songs because the children become better listeners – they tune in to the rhythm of the words (the parents will wonder how you taught their child to sing whole songs!)
6. You feel confident teaching your group because the lesson is prepared for you so that you are able to successfully lead the children – and if something does go wrong, you’ll have another activity ready so you can quickly engage the toddlers in a completely new fun thing to do. (Instead of cringing over disastrous moments you can tell your colleagues how you saved the situation in a flash!)
7. You save hours of weekend and evening lesson planning time – no more frustration figuring out the learning opportunities, finding the music, thinking up activities appropriate for the age, working out a topic that brings everything together – it’s all done for you in one neat package
