Music Resources

​

In addition to the benefits of learning music simply for the sake of learning music, research has found that learning music facilitates learning other subjects and enhances skills that children inevitably use in other areas. A music-rich experience for children of singing, listening and moving is really bringing a very serious benefit to children, especially in early stages of development.

​

A good place to start is PJ Library Radio. In addition to the stream on the website, there are spotify compilations including holiday specific playlists.

​

You can also reference this song sheet from the preschool for more songs. 

​

Below is an alphabetized list of links to YouTube videos of some favorite songs you can sing with your children - some classics from my childhood, some newer stuff my kid loves, and some requests from you.
