101 Rhythm Instrument Activities for Young Children

Introduce rhythm instruments to young children with activities that bring music into the classroom using rhythm sticks, sand blocks, bells, shakers, and more! Children make the sound of the ocean waves using shakers, pretend to be a train using sand blocks, create a rainstorm with rhythm sticks, and perform circus tricks with jingle bells. Rhythm instrument activities promote listening, motor control and imagination--vital learning tools.
