Sound and Listening Games: It’s Playtime Kids Link Up!

May 16, 2012 by Anna Ranson

Playing with sounds and being able to discriminate between them is a really essential early literacy skill.

Here are some fun ideas for listening games and homemade instruments that were linked up to last week’s It’s Playtime! I hope you will check them all out and leave the authors a comment.

Inspiration Laboratories shared a lovely idea for going on a sound hunt in the outdoor environment.


Deceptively Educational made some wonderful homemade palm pipe instruments! 

 Make Do and Friend linked a Montessori inspired sound match game using plastic eggs.

    I’m extremely impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your weblog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Either way keep up the nice quality writing, it is rare to see a nice blog like this one today.

    hello there and thank you for your info – I
    have definitely picked up something new from right here.

    I did however expertise some technical points using this site, as
    I experienced to reload the web site a lot of times previous to I could get it to load
    properly. I had been wondering if your web host is OK?
    Not that I’m complaining, but slow loading instances times will often affect your placement in google and could damage your high-quality score if ads and marketing with Adwords. Anyway I am adding this RSS to my email and could look out for much more of your respective fascinating content. Make sure you update this again soon.
