Jul 7, 2021 · Looking for engaging, musical games to play with your students? Here are a few of my favorite games and activities for elementary music classes, children's choirs, and elementary group classes.
- Music Note Twister: This game is designed to review note & rest names and values. Spread out the music note and rest cards (available if you click on the Music Note Twister link) all over the classroom floor face up.
- Musical Note Spoons: This game is designed to help build sight reading skills by reviewing notes on the staff and learning to quickly correlate notes with each other (steps, skips, etc.).
- Word Search with Music Notes: See how quickly your music students can put together a word once you call it out! Played alone or with a group, this game really makes sure you know the names of the notes — and be quick about it, too!
- War! Music Note Card Game. This game has got to be one of my students all time favorites! I first found this idea off of teachpianotoday.com. We played it once and my students were hooked.

- Music Stories. I LOVE stories. Stories are a great way to connect music with another human art, drama. Whether you find one already written and illustrated like the Crabfish song with John Feierabend’s book or you make one up as I did in my Kindergarten steady beat series, connect your favorite songs with a story for powerful music learning and experiences.
- Movement To Music. Movement, movement, movement. I think Gunild Keetman and Carl Orff had it right when they looked at movement as an essential part of music education.
- Playing Musical Instruments. Yes, this one is obvious, but it’s always a good one to go back to. Take a song, simple rhythms (quarter notes, eighth notes in an easy time signature), or anything and put it on a new instrument.
- Rhythm And Melody Reading Practice. Learning to hear, read, and write rhythms and melodies may not seem like a fun way to do music (because it’s learning), but when you connect it to different songs or make music games out of it, it’s a lot of fun.
