Presented by Stephanie Leavell

Time: Tuesday July 13, 11:30 EDT (Eastern Daylight Time)

Early childhood music groups are a unique challenge that can require the facilitator to play referee, acrobat, performer, songwriter, and cheerleader all in one. What if you could reduce the stress of early childhood music groups by utilizing music therapy-inspired techniques and resources? Join Stephanie Leavell, board certified music therapist, Berklee College of Music graduate and founder of MusicForKiddos.com, as she shares early childhood music resources and tried-and-true techniques that can help kids stay engaged, excited, and ready to learn. This session will give you ready-to-use resources that you can take home with you and immediately implement in your classroom.

During this session:

1. Participants will identify one music therapy-inspired tool for engaging children in music.

2. Participants will identify an appropriate use of a movement song.

3. Participants will identify one example of using music for sensory regulation.
