Building Repertoire
All three of these albums won awards in the United Kingdom. If you are new to teaching, or have missed these resources in the past, this is your chance to catch up with some popular and use-friendly teaching resources.
Splish Splash Splosh
Essential songs on this collection help kids to learn about their world and how they fit into it. Our "Jump out of bed" song teaches morning routines in a fun way as well as developing memory. Kids love the humour. So don't forget to put your pants on! Balance on a tightrope and make interesting geometric shapes with elastic loops, build a house and catch scarves on different body parts.
Wriggle and Jiggle
Developing reaction control can be fun in Wriggle and Jiggle, make sure you stop when the music stops! Learn the days of the week through fun actions and have a puppet help you develop your memory. How can a cardboard box teach you about positional language and how can drawing squiggles help you make friends. Come along and we'll show you how.
Echo Fred
Mrs Bunny and Tidy Up Time are favourites on this collection but there are many more good songs to share. Come and play a drum-passing game, develop your fitness in a rap, and use words to make up rhythms.
Learning is easy and you don't have to be a rock star to teach it.
