Back to school comes with a lot of feelings. ❤️
Excitement, nerves, exhaustion, anticipation, joy, overwhelm... sometimes all in the same day.
Music can give kids another way to tell us what’s going on when “How was school?” gets us nowhere.
Try asking, “What does today sound like?”
Maybe it was a Taylor Swift kind of day. Maybe it calls for some quiet Bach, singing at the top of your lungs to a favorite Disney song, or grabbing a wooden spoon microphone and dancing to “Dance the Night.” Maybe it’s a curl-up-and-listen-to “What a Wonderful World” arranged by Jon Batiste kind of afternoon.
There doesn’t always have to be a lesson attached, and music doesn’t have to fix the feeling. Sometimes it simply gives us another way to notice it, express it, and share it.
So, what does your day sound like today? Drop us a song. 🎶
