Hold a Family Meeting:
Don’t let your kids become shy, fearful of making mistakes, or feel their opinions don’t count. Loosen them up by planning a family music night.
Help your kids discuss the following:
Find a night that fits for everyone
Decide which kitchen utensil will be the microphone
Pick out the best music to play
Ask, “Who wants to sing?
Dance?
Clap to rhythm?
Whistle?
Mime a song?
Play an instrument?
On Family Music Night
When one round of songs is finished, take turns using the different ways to make music. Keep playing and exchanging until everyone has tried every method.
Become an orchestra. Pick the best song for everyone to express themselves together.
The family meeting helps everyone look forward to music night. When the members can be silly, express themselves without criticism, and have fun together, your family will be building a happy character within each person.
