Audio Playlists

The music within this playlist will inspire movement, imagination, and creativity for young children.

For classroom teachers, put on a piece of music from this playlist at the beginning of the school day and ask your students to think about what kind of story is being told through the music.  Is it action-packed?  Is it gentle and smooth? How do you want to move to it?

For parents and caregivers, play a piece during breakfast and ask your child to think about the musical story being told, and when they are done eating, they can act it out for you with the music!

The music within this playlist will help young children transition between activities and areas of the classroom, while staying engaged and focused.  This music is fun to move to, but not overstimulating to their developing nervous systems.

For parents and caregivers, use this music to support the more challenging parts of your day with your child.  For example, play a piece during clean up time or when your child is putting on their socks and shoes.

The music is in this playlist will guide children (young and old!) to take a moment for stillness and breath and to calm their minds and bodies.  Turn the lights down in the room and enjoy a few minutes to be still, take deep breaths, and let the music wash over you.

For classroom teachers, use this music as a way to refocus your students after an activity like recess or P.E.  It can also be used as a gentle wake up signal from their nap time.
