Learning and Singing a Welcome Song
Children, especially preschoolers, look forward to a fun-filled day in school. Imagine the minute the kids enter the class; they are welcomed by a joyful song that uplifts their spirits and wants them to be a part of it. Wouldn't it be lovely if our day began with a chirpy and joyous song?
As Plato said, “For education, music is an essential instrument more than any other.”
Music is an excellent platform for kids to express themselves freely and feel inspired. If we greet children with a warm smile and with just a small word, “hello”, we not only break the ice but also acknowledge their presence in the class. Singing songs during circle time eases the child’s anxieties and fear if they have any.
