With the Neighborhood Symphony Activity Jumper, you can be a little musician and make beautiful music. Baby Einstein is here to help you start your musical journey. Let’s play and learn together!
Instrument Exploration: Gather some simple musical instruments like maracas, tambourines, or homemade shakers (using rice and a sealed container). Encourage the children to play along with a piece of classical music. Ask them to listen carefully and try to match the rhythm or create their own sounds. Discuss how different instruments can make different sounds and how they can be used to express feelings.
Language and Music Connection: Use the colorful bongo drums from the Neighborhood Symphony Activity Jumper to explore words in different languages. Teach the children a simple word or phrase in each of the three languages featured on the drums. Then, play a game where you say the word, and they have to repeat it while tapping the drums. Discuss how music can help us learn new things, including languages.
Music in Nature: Take the children on a short walk outside and ask them to listen for natural “music” around them, like birds singing, leaves rustling, or water flowing. After the walk, have a discussion about how these sounds are similar to or different from the music they heard in the jumper. Encourage them to think about how music is all around us, not just in instruments.
