Music and Movement

The Association for Library Service to Children had a guest post about Music and Movement at the Library by Stephanie Prato of the Fayetteville Free Library in New York. It spelled out a few good reasons to keep including music and movement in our storytimes, as well as programming around music even if we aren't specifically music educators.


What types of music and movement programs or unprograms are you doing at your library?

Stephanie's suggested these resources for Music and Movement Education:

1. Pica, R., & Pica, R. (2010). Experiences in movement & music: Birth to age 8. Belmont, CA: Wadsworth/Cengage Learning.
2. Early Childhood Music and Movement Association
3. LetsMove.gov
4. National Association for Music Education
