If you don’t have instruments for all your kids, don’t worry! — there are other ways to teach music.
First, you can use soundtracks, voices, and bodies. Movement activities, singing, and listening to music are excellent ways to teach kids how to sing, keep a rhythm, and even work on percussion using their bodies (e.g., clapping).
You can also find instrument substitutes. For example, you can make a drum kit using buckets and dull pencils. Plastic cups are also great (especially for teaching the cup song). Many of our games don’t use musical instruments, so you can certainly use them to teach various musical skills.
