Have You Brought Your Singing Voice? (pitch)

This is a good introductory activity for helping children to 'find' their singing voice and humming voice as opposed to their talking voice. It's one of the first things to do in music with a new group of children. It's also a good attention-grabber to use at any time to settle the children down. Whatever voice the teacher uses, the children copy it when they reply.

  • Teacher says: Have you brought your talking voice?
  • Children say in a normal talking voice: Yes we have! Yes we have!
  • Teacher sing-songs: Have you brought your singing voice?
  • Children sing-song: Yes we have! Yes we have!
  • Teacher whispers: Have you brought your whispering voice?
  • Children whisper: Yes we have! Yes we have!
  • Teacher hums: Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm?
  • Children hum: Mm mm mm! Mm mm mm!
  • And so on ...
