Cooler weather is here and that means more days inside. Those cold days when kids are stuck inside and the fussing, fighting and arguing sets in is a perfect time to brighten the mood and change the pace with these fun Winter Music Studies. Who knows…beneath all that snow and ice your kids might just find they like learning about music!
Some of these are worksheets, some are songs, some are games and some are just for FUN!! There are resources here for toddlers and preschoolers through upper Elementary!!
