How I Make Rhythm Fun for Kids
I wanted to make rhythm fun and easy for kids when I began teaching music. I created the Word Association for Rhythm Understanding method, using familiar words to help kids see how language and music are connected. I then added the Kodály Method, using syllables like “Ta” and “Ti-ti” in games that make rhythms easy to understand. I incorporated Movement and Dance to keep lessons active, encouraging kids to move to the rhythms. Finally, I teach the Traditional Counting Method, breaking down rhythm counting into simple, fun steps with clapping and instruments.
