Young children are naturally musical. From first vocalisations to singing songs in tune and time with others, from tapping on household objects to producing carefully controlled instrumental accompaniments, the young child explores, listens to and creates music. In early childhood, musical experiences include singing, listening, playing, and moving. This week, the Play School team are visited by some special musical guests. Each day, we see people playing different instruments in an orchestra. We also explore home-made instruments, body percussion and the sounds produced by string, wind and brass instruments.
