The positive influence of music on children is undeniable. Children have a pronounced sensitivity, so they are able to perceive music more effectively than adults. They are more open and emotional, due to this they can grasp all the smallest details of musical works. Musical games for children can become a bridge into the rich world of melodies.
Where did the music come from?
Music has accompanied humanity almost since its inception. It is believed that initially primitive people “tried their voice” by imitating the cries of animals, birds, and various sounds of nature. And the first rhythms appeared when performing monotonous work, for example, during a long period of rubbing pieces of wood to make fire or tanning hides. Music accompanied a person from the moment of birth to the last breath.
Research into music in general and its individual categories has been ongoing for a long time. It has now been unequivocally proven that children should be exposed to musical works as early as possible, ideally from birth. Classical music is recognized as the best not only for children, but also for people in general. And although people who are little familiar with classical music often consciously deny its positive influence, research on the subconscious still states the opposite.
Mozart's music has been considered ideal for children for many decades. Russian and Soviet composers have also significantly enriched the children's world musical heritage. And if we recall a significant number of children's songs, it becomes obvious: parents and teachers are provided with a wealth of material for the musical development of children.
Since it is very difficult to imagine a child just sitting decorously in front of a playing device, numerous interesting and fun musical games for children have been invented.
The role of music in infant development
Listening to classical music is often recommended for pregnant women, as it has a positive effect on the baby's brain development.
In the first months after birth The baby should turn on the music that he listened to while in the womb. This will remind him of comfort and a sense of security; will help him calm down while crying.
In the first six months of life For children, the emphasis should be on classical music and listening to the sounds of nature (birds singing and chirping, the murmur of water, the rustling of leaves, etc.).
At six months it is necessary to gradually dilute the musical assortment with cheerful children's songs.
From about eight or ten months It is worth practicing mother and baby dancing together. Dance movements will cause a lot of positive emotions, will help train motor functions and develop a sense of rhythm.
Musical games for preschoolers
Musical children's games are aimed, first of all, at the general development of the child, as well as at developing an ear for music and a sense of rhythm. More effective learning of music occurs in a children's group. Musical games in kindergarten are an integral part of educational and educational work.
For children of the youngest groups, musical games in the garden serve an introductory function. At the age of two or three years, games in music classes are predominantly mobile in nature, practically without any theory.
The main goals of playful music lessons with children:
- Learn to distinguish and compare sounds of different pitches and timbres.
- Introduce the simplest musical instruments.
- Give concepts about the main characteristics of musical passages or works: sad and cheerful, loud and quiet, fast and slow.
- Develop the ability to move to the beat of music.
- Instill initial skills in individual and joint singing to music.
- Teach the easiest dance movements to perform.
Special musical didactic games for preschoolers are mostly designed for children in the senior and preparatory groups.
Musical didactic games in kindergarten have the following goals:
- Deepening and consolidating all the knowledge acquired at the initial stage of musical studies.
- Practical acquaintance with children's musical instruments.
- Study of various “adult” musical instruments.
- Formation of such concepts as “musical ensemble” and “orchestra”.
In addition to specific musical goals, musical games in preschool educational institutions with older preschoolers are designed to instill perseverance, as well as improve memory and sharpen the attention of children.
Musical and didactic games can be separate for girls and boys. For example, musical games for girls involve the use of dolls: fast music sounds - the dolls “dance”, and when the sounds of lullabies are heard, the dolls need to be rocked to sleep. Boys can be “robots” who move when the music is fast, but “turn off” when the music is slow. These are the simplest children's games with music to introduce the concept of tempo.
Musical instruments for children
Playing children's musical instruments is an essential part of child development.
The main musical instruments for young children are the following:
- glockenspiel;
- bells;
- triangle;
- drum;
- tambourine;
- spoons.
Children can play all of these instruments independently. Children with an ear for music and a sense of rhythm are able to form a well-matched group and then demonstrate their skills at holidays and matinees in preschool institutions.
Games using musical instruments make it possible at an early age to identify children who have a special inclination to study music and have an ear for music. Parents of such children are recommended, if possible, to further develop the child’s abilities: for example, enroll their daughter or son in a music school.
Holiday Music Events
In preschool children's institutions, matinees and other festive events are of great importance. Preparing for the holidays organizes children's groups and instills basic concepts of teamwork. Successful performances give children considerable pleasure. Parents present at the celebrations can clearly evaluate the work of music and other preschool teachers, as well as the success of their children.
Games for children accompanied by music at holidays and matinees have slightly different goals and character than games in music classes. In the second case, it is a process, and in the first, it is a demonstration of the result. Children's musical festivals also play an important psychological role: they help identify children who experience fear and discomfort when performing in front of an audience or while being among a large number of people.
With the exception of graduation events for future first-graders, the New Year occupies a very special place among children's holidays. Musical New Year's games for children are not just filled with sound, they carry a sense of fairy tale, mystery and magic.
New Year's musical games for children can be divided into two groups:
- To the first group will include all standard games with music that do not have a special New Year's theme; The holiday flavor is emphasized by Father Frost, Snow Maiden or Snowman as presenters and/or participants. Decorating musical instruments with tinsel or “rain” also gives a wonderful New Year’s effect.
- Second group will make up specific New Year's musical games that use songs about the New Year, Christmas tree, snow, Christmas tree decorations and New Year's pictures as auxiliary items.
Children's musical games for the New Year can be used by parents if there is a meeting with friends or relatives in which a large number of children will take part (not necessarily on New Year's Eve).
And a completely special category can be made up of such New Year's musical games for kids, which are individual in nature and can be used by artists working by invitation and playing the role of Father Frost and the Snow Maiden.
Selection of music games
The selection of musical games for children should be carried out with special care and take into account:
- age of the child(ren);
- the presence or absence of any musical knowledge and skills;
- equipment available for conducting classes.
We also note that educational musical games for children are provided free of charge by some Internet sites; It’s not difficult to download musical games for children, the main thing is to determine how accurately a particular game corresponds to the child’s age, as well as to the goals and objectives set. Properly selected and conducted musical didactic games significantly enrich the inner world of every child and contribute to his all-round development.
Outdoor and musical games
Examples of musical games for little ones
At the age of one and a half years, you can master musical games. Music has a beneficial effect on the baby's intelligence, develops his thinking, imagination, and memory. In addition to its positive effect on the psyche and intellect, music also contributes to the physical development of children: feeling the rhythm, the child involuntarily begins to move to the beat of the music. This allows you to get involved in the process of exercises and gymnastics much faster.
"Guess whose sound"
The child's familiar toys are selected as tools for play. You can also use various materials from which it is possible to extract sound. These can be wooden cubes, spoons, glass balls (put them in a jar first).
If the game is played for a group of children, then first they need to be introduced to objects, the sound of which will need to be recognized.
Items are placed on a tray. It is located behind the leader’s back or behind some kind of fence (for example, a screen or a box with toys). The presenter makes a sound from an object, but the child does not see this object. Then he unfolds the tray to the baby and asks him to take the thing he just used.
"Guess the melody"
Three or four melodies of famous children's songs are selected, as well as thematic pictures for them. The presenter introduces the children to this material. Then he turns on the melody of one of the songs and asks to show a picture that relates to this song.
Examples of musical games for children from 2 to 4 years old
Between the ages of two and four years, the child’s need to acquire new knowledge rapidly increases. He becomes interested in everything, he asks a lot of questions. His motor activity increases. At this age, it is very useful to introduce a child to musical instruments, learn songs, and dance.
"Clear sun"
To play this game you will need a scarf (or a scarf) of blue or blue color (it will symbolize the sky) and a toy in the shape of a sun (plastic or soft).
Children sit on chairs with their palms on their knees. The child, who plays the role of the “sun,” picks up a toy and hides behind a scarf. The handkerchief is held by an adult or other children.
Music plays, and the children begin to call the sun: “Sunshine, sunshine! Look out the window!” In the middle of a piece of music, the “sun” peeks out from behind a scarf or shawl. Children sitting on chairs, seeing the “sun,” say: “Come out, sunshine, quickly.” Caress and warm! And after that they turn their hands over with their palms facing up. The child playing “sun” comes up to everyone and strokes their palms.
After the end of the music, the “sun” independently chooses the child who will continue to portray the “sun”, and sits down in his place, while passing the toy.
"Cats and mice"
Quiet and loud melodies are selected. They choose one baby - he will be a cat, the rest - mice. The “cat” is placed in the center of the circle. When a quiet melody sounds, the “cat” shows that he is sleeping, and the “mice” sneak towards him. When a loud melody is turned on, the “cat” wakes up and begins to run after the “mice”. Whoever he catches first becomes the “cat”.
"Differentiate the Tempo"
A song or simply a melody is selected, which has a slow and fast tempo. The presenter shows the children movements to music at a slow tempo, and then at a fast tempo. The music is turned on and the children must depict the movements correctly, taking into account the tempo.
By analogy, you can play a game in which the emphasis will be placed not on tempo, but on the volume of sound.
"Bunny and the Wolf"
One is selected from a group of children to play the role of a “wolf.” The rest of the children become “bunnies”. A “house” is built for them from chairs (the chairs are placed in a semicircle). A musical composition symbolizing morning begins to play. The “bunnies” gradually begin to rise from the “house”. They stretch and wash themselves. A more cheerful tune begins to play. The “bunnies” come out of the “house” and jump across the “lawn”. The music changes to something more menacing. A "wolf" appears. He begins to run around the “lawn” after the “bunnies”. Whoever he catches first becomes the “wolf”.
Examples of musical games for children from 4 to 6 years old
Children aged four to six years are characterized by increased motor and cognitive activity. Therefore, emphasis should be placed on dance exercises and active musical games; for children of this age, they should be alternated with music classes that involve choral singing and a minimum of movements so that the children can rest a little.
"Put on your hat"
A simple musical game for preschool children that promotes not only their musical but also their cognitive development. To carry it out, you need to have several hats (a woman’s hat, a cowboy hat, a medical headdress with a red cross, a policeman’s cap). The presenter introduces the children to these hats and explains how they can portray who the hat belongs to.
Children stand in a circle. Music starts playing. The presenter gives some child a headdress. Next, the hat is passed on to everyone in turn. And as soon as the music stops sounding, the one in whose hands the hat remains must portray the person to whom it belongs (a policeman, a doctor, a woman or a cowboy). Having fulfilled the role, the child leaves the circle. The game continues until there is only one child left. The presenter also gives him a hat and he must show who it belongs to.
“Whose tambourine?”
The guys sit on chairs. One of them is given a tambourine. The presenter begins to sing a song mentioning the name of the child to whom he handed the tambourine. At the end of the song the name of another baby is called. The one with the tambourine must hand over the musical instrument to him. And then the song is sung using the name of another child. A song known to many is chosen as a piece of music so that everyone can sing in chorus.
"Pilots, watch the weather"
Children stand near the wall or sit on chairs. They will depict pilots who fly airplanes. The wall or chairs will be “airfields”. Happy music starts playing. “Planes” leave “airfields” and fly across the “sky” (this will be the room) in any direction. Cheerful music abruptly gives way to calm music - the “planes” return to the “airfields”. Then everything is repeated, but instead of calm music, loud, menacing music is turned on (it symbolizes a storm). And at this moment the “pilot” must “land the plane” (stop) in order to “wait out the storm.” He should do this in the place where he was at the moment the melody changed.
Musical games at the Children's Party
Examples of musical games for children from 6 to 8 years old
A peculiarity of the musical development of children aged six to eight years is that they are able to perceive changes in musical moods; imagine images evoked by musical works. At this age, children interact effectively in pairs, and their dance movements become quite varied. Musical games should be selected taking into account these age characteristics.
"Stream"
A well-known musical game for children and not only. Children are divided into pairs and join hands. They line up in this form one after another and raise their clasped hands up. A corridor is formed. Happy music starts playing. The child, who is the driver, runs through this corridor and chooses from among the children the one with whom he wants to form a pair. Then he stands with this child at the other end of the corridor. The newly formed couple clasps hands in the same way as the other participants. The one who is left without a partner becomes the driver and runs along the corridor, choosing a partner.
The game continues until interest in it is lost.
"Dance on the Newspaper"
For this game you will need several newspapers or sheets of paper. The guys are divided into pairs. Stand on newspaper or paper. Cheerful music comes on and they start dancing. Do not go beyond the edges of the newspaper or paper. Whoever leaves is out of the game. The music stops and the guys must fold the newspaper or paper in half and dance on it, following the rules. Then it decreases again. The winner is the couple that was able to dance on the smallest piece of newspaper or paper, without going beyond its boundaries.
“Hands, legs, head, let’s dance without difficulty!”
The presenter divides the guys into two teams: spectators and dancers. The music begins to sound and the “dancers” must dance only with their hands. The music stops. Children playing the role of spectators choose the one who danced best with their hands. Then the “dancers” perform a dance with their feet, and the best one is also chosen. Next is the head dance. The winner is the one who performed the two or three best dances. After this, the teams change places. At the end of the game, the two winners from both teams compete against each other.
"Who is faster"
Chairs are used as equipment for the game. There should be one less of them than the participants. The chairs are placed in a circle, with their backs inward. A cheerful melody is playing. The guys dance to the music, walking in a circle. As soon as the music stops, participants must sit down on chairs. The one who does not have enough chair is eliminated from the game. The game continues until one player remains.
"Guess the song"
Children are divided into two groups. One group asks for a song, and the second must guess it. A player from the team that made the song goes to the middle of the room and begins to use gestures, movements and facial expressions to show what the song is about. The second team must guess the song. After this, the teams perform the chosen composition together. If the song is guessed, then you have the right to guess a new composition and move on to another team. If not, then the group whose song was not guessed guesses again. Every child must take part in pantomime during the game.
How to instill in your child an interest in music
Parents and teachers should develop a child’s interest in music gradually. You need to start before the baby is born. The first acquaintance with music should consist of listening to musical works, then you should include dance movements, then move on to learning songs and getting acquainted with musical instruments.
To develop an interest in music, you must follow the following recommendations:
- a pregnant woman should often listen to classical music so that the baby in her womb can also hear it;
- after the birth of a child, you should play the music that he heard before he was born;
- perform gymnastic exercises and massage on the baby while listening to music;
- practice joint dancing between children and parents;
- buy musical toys for your child;
- regularly play classical music and children's songs (try to learn them);
- introduce your child to musical instruments;
- regularly hold musical games for children.
If the child is not particularly inclined to dancing or singing, in no case should you insist on it. If he does not strive to become a famous dancer or singer, or he does not have the inclination to do so, there is no point in excluding music in all its forms from his life. And this is exactly what can be achieved if you try too hard. Simply listening to music at home or in the car can have a positive impact on a child’s development.
Music lessons are not only about singing and learning to play instruments, but also a great opportunity to add variety to almost any activity. You can start practicing at any age; educational musical games for children will benefit both mental and physical development.
Outdoor musical games
Kids love to listen to music, and children start dancing almost before they walk. Dance and rhythm classes for children are based on adapted songs that encourage the child to perform certain actions, for example:
There are a lot of similar songs. Children especially love songs in which they need to depict a bear, hare, fox, bird and other animals. As they grow older, the tasks become more complicated: make lanterns with pens, spin, and the like. Carrying out gymnastics and exercises with music is much more fun than with a strict count: One! Two! Once! Two! So, to a cheerful song and using simple equipment, you can walk, run, crawl, jump, reach for the sun, squat and much more.
Finger games
Developing musical games for children are not limited to dancing only. Fingering exercises accompanied by music are very useful for relieving tone, as a gentle massage, for developing speech, and as a way to relax your hands while learning to write. Everyone probably knows:
You can find plenty of suitable music; a lot of it was written specifically for finger games. For babies about a year old, “Ladushki” and “Soroka” are suitable. The older the child, the more difficult the task becomes; for example, for one and a half to two years the following would be suitable:
Fairy tales - noisemakers
Another type of musical games are the so-called fairy tales - noisemakers. The basis can be any musical fairy tale or audiobook. And then “revive” it with improvised means: when the bear walks, the children beat the drum, the hedgehog rustles - a plastic bag rustles, the horse gallops - the bells ring. Such games will involve the child in the creative process, help develop attention, imaginative thinking and auditory perception.
Children's orchestra
Playing in an orchestra is an interesting and useful activity for the development of musical ear. Kids are quite capable of mastering the following: triangle, drum, tambourine, maracas. Before playing the composition, children are given instruments, and a place in it is allocated where the child must “play.” The main thing is that the music is age-appropriate, and the child can clearly understand where his instrument should play. After a little time, kids will be able to perform such tasks perfectly.
So, our conversation about educational musical games for children is coming to an end, let's make some generalizations. Children really like games, especially collective ones; the task of adults is to invent or select them.
In addition to the games that were described in this article, parents are recommended to teach their children as many rhymes and songs as possible in a playful way. In such activities, toys can play an important role, which, on the one hand, involve the child in the process, and on the other hand, serve as “theater props.”
And here are video examples of some finger games. Be sure to check it out!

Explanatory note
Emotions are the “central link”
human mental life
and, above all, the child.
(L. Vygotsky)
The collection of musical games is based on the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard for Preschool Education, OOP, the age characteristics of children of this age, and the peculiarities of the organization of the pedagogical process in preschool educational organizations.
In connection with the introduction of the Federal State Educational Standard, special hopes are placed on preschool education. Work that meets the modern requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard requires teachers to search for innovative means, methods and techniques aimed at developing the child’s personality, his cognitive and creative abilities. The current direction of modernization of the preschool education system is artistic and aesthetic education, as one of the main means of spiritual, moral, cultural development of the individual.
Senior preschool age is the period of primary formation of the moral image of the future citizen. In the process of musical and play activities, children develop emotional responsiveness, which is the basis of the emotional and figurative essence of music; the emotional sphere dominates all aspects of a child’s life, giving them a color of expressiveness, impulsiveness, and emotionality.
The purpose of the collection: the development of the emotional sphere in children 5-6 years old.
accumulation of children's musical experience in the process of musical and play activities;
activating the creative abilities of older preschoolers through participation in musical games.
developing the child’s ability to understand his own emotions and the emotions of the people around him.
The collection consists of three sections based on music games:
1 section
Musical games for expressive speech
Section 2
Dancing games
Section 3
Plastic improvisation games
The proposed collection will help to successfully carry out work on developing beautiful posture, freedom and plastic movements in children. Feelings and moods evoked by music will give children's movements an emotional coloring, influencing the variety and expressiveness of gestures in musical play activities.
Musical games can be used in routine moments and independent activities.
1 Section. Musical games for expressive speech.
"We're playing steam locomotive"
Musical accompaniment: (to the tune of the song “Steam Locomotive”, lyrics by O. Vysotskaya, music by 3. Kompaneets).
Purpose of the game: development of an ear for music, coordination of movements, the ability to physically react to the musical rhythm and accurately embody it in movements. Development of intonation voice. In addition, during the game, teamwork and interaction skills are developed.
Progress of the game. The children stand next to each other. The child standing in front is the driver of the “steam locomotive”, the rest of the children are the carriages, they “attach” to the driver, chanting the little rhyme:
What kind of miracle locomotive is this?
It has no steam and no wheels!
We cling to each other...
Driver, give the signal!
The time for departure has arrived...
When the music starts, the driver sounds the horn. The “locomotive” begins to move: the children move their feet, imitating the movement of the wheels and imitating their clicking. The “steam locomotive” starts from its place and travels to the “station” (for example, “Romashkino”). As the tempo of the music changes, the “speed of the locomotive” also changes: it goes slowly, then speeds up or slows down.
The task of each participant is not to become detached from the child in front and not to fall behind, since the “train” can “maneuver” at full speed. The train must arrive at the stop in full force.
Steam locomotive, steam locomotive,
Brand new, shiny!
He drove the wagons
Like it's real.
Who's on the train?
Teddy bears,
Fluffy cats
Hares and monkeys.
Note: At least 5-7 children take part in the game. The main task facing the players is to act coherently and clearly, as a team. Teams of 3-5 people can also participate in the game. In this case, the game becomes a competition. The winner will be the most friendly “train”, which did not lose a single “car” during its movement.
"Musicians"
Musical accompaniment: ( musical instruments: maracas, tambourine, triangle, metallophone).
Purpose of the game: learning the basic techniques of playing the simplest percussion instruments, developing creative thinking and imagination. Development of emotionally charged voice intonations.
Progress of the game. First, the teacher introduces the children to musical instruments, repeats their names and explains the rules of playing each of them. After this, the adult invites the children to tell a fairy tale, but not just like that, but accompanying each phrase with sound (noise) effects created with the help of musical instruments.
“Once upon a time there was a boy who was afraid of everything. I was afraid of strong winds, thunderstorms, rain and even the rustling of leaves.” The teacher must first show himself how these natural phenomena “sound”. Only after this does he continue his story: “...But one day everything changed. The boy met a wise and kind wizard who not only helped him cope with his fears, but also taught him to understand the language of nature. Now the boy heard music in the rain, in the rustling of leaves, and the thunder turned out to be not so terrible. Now he seemed to the boy in the form of a prankish baby sitting on a cloud and playing with a rattle. And the boy also made friends with the wind and began to race with it...”
The teacher asks the little musicians to independently accompany the story with audio comments. Each “performance” is discussed, and as a result, children choose the best. Then the teacher invites the children to come up with their own little fairy tale using the musical instruments they already know.
Note: Since the game is aimed at activating the creative abilities of children, there are no winners or losers in it. Each participant in the game must be encouraged by the teacher.
“One word, two words - there will be a song”
Musical accompaniment:(recording of cheerful music “Fir trees - pines”)
Purpose of the game: to promote the creation of psychological comfort, the receipt of positive emotions, the development of creative abilities and inclinations in children of senior preschool age.
Progress of the game. A fairy-tale character, such as Baba Yaga, turns to the guys for help. She is invited to a name day with her bosom friend Kikimora. I decided to sing her my famous choruses as a gift, but the problem is that grandma is illiterate and has no memory. I composed a song, and then forgot half of the words. Yaga asks the guys to help her remember forgotten rhymes. She starts singing:
