Kids Love Music Crafts

Humans created musical instruments long before they created a written language. Even birds and monkeys make music. Students will learn these facts and more as they explore the sights and sounds of the world of music. Accompanied by colorful images and patterns that are easy to reproduce using a copier or printer, accessible step-by-step directions instruct students how to make panpipes, a colonial drum, maracas, a ukulele, and six other unique instruments. Brief descriptions of each item's history and cultural significance open each spread.

An exciting way to discover the true magic of music. With this book, children will discover how to make their own instruments, write their own songs and play them, even put on a dance and a full-fledged show. Black-and-white illustrations.

This book teaches how to develop children’s musical skills through a unique compilation of songs, arts and crafts, stories, instrument building, musical activities, illustrations, acting, and dance. Nowadays, with art and music programs removed from many public schools, we need a book like this. This book’s holistic approach is designed for parents or teachers (with or without musical knowledge) to interact with children in a collaborative learning experience. Big Brain, Little Hands facilitates the “building blocks” for children’s first musical and artistic experiences, otherwise mainly taught through private lessons. Working this program with autistic children and children with learning disabilities has also shown excellent results. Music and Arts are fundamental for any child’s development because they create neural connections between the brain’s hemispheres (hence the term “Music Therapy.”) Here’s a chance to access these fun practices anytime you want. This book is a labor of love for our precious little ones’ future!
