Song Story Games and Activities

Using song books is all about singing, acting, making noises, and including as many different sensory

activities as possible. The song and singing obviously creates auditory stimuli. Song books become
powerful when we add in tactile, visual, and kinesthetic feedback. For many of our song stories we
create puppets or faces so that the children can act out the story or have the characters sing with

them. As an example, here is a folder activity made out of clothespins so that the monkeys can fall
off the bed. This is also a paper plate monkey face that can be used to sing the songs.
