Vocal Exercises and Games: Making the Learning Process Fun!
March 02, 2024Learning to sing can be not only beneficial and enriching but also engaging. Through play, kids absorb information better and are more eager to do exercises. Here are some vocal exercises and games to make singing lessons fun and entertaining.
"Vocal Bingo"
Create cards with different vocal exercises. In each lesson, the child draws a card and completes the task. This could be a trill, an aria, or even a short improvisation.
Exercise "Emotional Roller Coaster"
As the child sings, hand them a card with a specific emotion: joy, sadness, surprise. The challenge is to convey that emotion while singing.
"Vocal Quest"
Organize a vocal journey for the child. Let each song or exercise be a stop on the way to a "treasure" - a new song or an interesting exercise.
"Reverse Singing"
Ask the child to sing a song backward, starting from the last verse and ending with the first. This hones memory and concentration.
Game "Musical Chair"
Play music, and while it's on, the child moves around the room. As soon as the music stops, the child sings their favorite song or a selected exercise.
"Musical Dice"
Create dice with musical tasks. For instance, one side might say "sing on high notes," another "sing softly." Let the child roll the dice and execute the task.
"Draw the Music"
Play various music pieces and ask the child to draw what they feel or envision in their imagination while listening to the tune.
Conclusion:
An approach where learning happens through play makes the educational process easy and relaxed. Such a method will help your child fall in love with singing and enjoy every lesson. We hope the suggested games and exercises become invaluable tools on your musical journey!
