Ear Training Game
Here’s a quick and easy game you can play with your preschool piano student:
Make a line on the floor.
Student stands on one side of the line.
Parent claps a certain number of times (start with 1-5).
Student counts the claps, and then jumps once across the line for every clap he or she heard.
This is an ear training game, that helps kids to listen, and helps them to reinforce their counting skills. For variations, you and your student could switch places (they clap, and you jump), or you could switch up the type of movement needed to cross the line (frog-hopping, skipping, rolling…)
