Music for health and wellbeing
Helping children make healthy choices
It’s not always easy to teach children about healthy living. The Healthy Living Music Programme makes it fun, with catchy songs about healthy eating, going to the park and growing vegetables that capture children’s imaginations so they are ready to learn. We’ve even got a song to make tooth brushing fun and a yoga song to encourage mindfulness.

As children use rhythm sticks or their hands to tap or clap out the word rhythms of different fruits and vegetables, they are learning about healthy eating, discovering new foods, supporting their literacy skills and developing their group social skills. And did I mention, it’s lots of fun!Download Munch Munch Munch and discover a fun way to learn about nature
Everyone loves ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’ and now you can explore the story through song, movement and role play. Munch Munch Munch follows the life cycle of the butterfly, and as ‘Mother Nature’ turns the caterpillar into a butterfly, children will love ‘flying’ around the room. A great song for deepening children’s love of nature.

Testimonials
When the children have had a busy period doing creative activities or playing outside, I tend to calm them all down by introducing the song 'Happy Cat' this is a lovely relaxing song where the children can be cats, lions, frogs and butterflies. I even find it relaxing too!
Both the children and the adults thoroughly enjoyed the workshop. It was very practical and engaged the children from the start; even the children who would normally just watch wanted to join in. 'Dan the Can' was the children's favourite and making music with recyclable materials.
Singing encourages the use of new words and helps the children to remember the meaning. Bradley watched his plant grow and this helped him to learn where some of our food comes from. I found it very interesting with ideas about crafts at home.Â
