5.0 out of 5 stars Great activities for little ones
As I teacher-librarian, I have loved using this book with my preschoolers and kindergartners. In the past I've been frustrated by purchasing books with only the lyrics and no music--so if I didn't know the music, I was out of luck.

This review is from: Musical Games, Fingerplays, and Rhythmic Activities for Early Childhood (Paperback)
As I teacher-librarian, I have loved using this book with my preschoolers and kindergartners. In the past I've been frustrated by purchasing books with only the lyrics and no music--so if I didn't know the music, I was out of luck. The musical notation (the melody line only) and lyrics are included for each song, and in some cases illustrations are provided to clarify the instructions for the games. Anyone with access to a piano could easily pick out the tunes. This book works well for matching a suitable game or fingerplay with the theme of a picture book. Many of the songs and games are old favorites; some were new to me.
