Introducing New Concepts and Establishing Routines for  Masks Musically

Picture
Music and song supports introducing new concepts and establishing routines for young children. Here are some musical resources to introduce putting on a mask, which in and of itself may be a tricky task for many young children! Using familiar tunes and adapting the words to familiar tunes can help in creating music rituals focused around everyday tasks such as putting on a mask. Here are two examples of how to adapt a familiar tune and create a music ritual for mask-wearing.

“Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star”
It’s time to put our masks on right,
Nice and snug, but not too tight.
Take one loop and place it here,
Then stretch across to the other ear.
Look at us! We’re all done!
Let’s keep them on and have some fun!

“The Wheels on the Bus”
I put the loops on both my ears…
…that’s how I wear my mask!
I keep it over my nose and mouth…
…that’s how I wear my mask!
I keep my hands off my face…
…that’s how I wear my mask!
I dance and play with all my friends…
…while I wear my mask!

​Mask-wearing can be challenging for parents and caregivers to implement, and children to maintain (let alone understand!). So, Kindermusik has also created a brand new song to address this safety guideline and to demystify mask-wearing, which can initially feel scary or uncomfortable for some children. “Your Mask, My Mask” explains why masks are important and the many fun things children can do while wearing them. Anyone can stream “Your Mask, My Mask” in the free Kindermusik app (available on the App Store or Google Play)! You can find it by going to Library>Kindermusik Rituals album, or just by searching the word “mask” within the App.
