1. Cut Loose. Ditch your inhibitions by starting music play with a wild kitchen dance or some loosey-goosey movement.
2. Sing Out. Anywhere, anyhow, anytime. Kids learn by repetition, so incorporate songs into your daily routine.
3. Feel the Rhythm. To help prewalkers (and even older kids) catch the beat, gently bounce or tap your child's body while you sing or listen to music.
4. Shake, Rattle, and Roll. Keep a basket of shakers, whistles, bells, tambourines, drums, harmonicas, and xylophones on hand. And take them out of the basket — often.
5. Give Them an Earful. Expose kids to the sounds you love — not just children's music.
