Sing with children. Sing “If You’re Happy” (Children’s Songbook, 266). For fun action activity, go to the same song in the Super Little Singers book (159) or CD-ROM.
POSTER ACTIVITY – I Love Music!
1. Print or copy the activity poster to color.
2. Talk about poster, saying, “I love music!”
• Talk about music, the melody that helps us sing the songs. For older children, play “Name that Tune” by having them guess as you hum familiar tunes.
• Strike up a band by making instruments* ahead of time: bang a drum, shake a shaker, or ring bells.
• Use the Stop and Go signs* to direct the band.
• Go Fish with children to choose a song using fish visuals*.
• For great singing and music playing, award children with a colored pencil or singing awards*.
*See Super Little Singers book or CD-ROM to make: Band Concert Instruments (p. 161), Stop and Go signs (p. 168, 185-86), Go Fish visuals (p. 163), and Super Singer Awards (p. 168).
3. Talk about the Home Activity: “Let’s listen to music together! Help me know what kind of music makes me feel happy and helps me think of Heavenly Father and Jesus.”

THOUGHT TREAT: Love-note bread. Using a can of cheese, draw a few heart-shaped love notes (see above) on bread (crust trimmed off). Tell children that these are music notes that tell us how to play a tune. Hum a familiar tune. When we learn the Primary songs, we are listening to good music that makes us feel good.
