How to Use Our Sing-Along Storybook Lessons


Looking for a fun and simple way to bring music, movement, and literacy into your classroom? Our Sing-Along Storybook Lessons are designed for teachers like you—flexible, engaging, and ready to teach.


And the best part? No musical background is required. Even if you don’t play an instrument, read music, or consider yourself “musical,” you can confidently lead these lessons. Everything is guided, modeled, and easy to use with your students.

Whether you’re hopping along with 5 Green and Speckled Frogs or rhyming through Down by the Bay, these lessons make it simple to combine learning and fun in your classroom.


Here’s how to get started in just a few easy steps:

Step 1: Download Your Lesson Packet

Choose a storybook from our shop! We offer 12 different Sing-Along Storybooks, (plus a FREE sample) each carefully designed to teach early music skills and literacy in a playful way.

Each lesson packet includes:

  • 8 ready-to-teach lessons

  • Digital storybook (PDF) for easy projection in the classroom

  • Audio tracks for singing along—no music expertise needed

  • Printable activities for hands-on learning

  • Guided discussion prompts to make teaching simple and confident

Everything is prepared for you—just open and go!


Step 2: Gather a Few Simple Materials

Before class, gather these basics:

  • A laptop or tablet

  • A screen or projector so everyone can see the story

  • Speakers so the music fills the room

That’s all you need to bring the story and music to life.


Step 3: Follow the Lesson Instructions

Open the storybook, press play on the audio, and enjoy the story and music with your students. Follow the step-by-step guide if you like, or adjust the pace to fit your class—these lessons are flexible to work for your schedule and classroom style.

Even if you’ve never taught music before, these lessons guide your students through rhythm, melody, note-reading, timbre, and more in a playful, natural way.


Step 4: Sing, Move, and Play Together

This is where the classroom comes alive! The lesson gives specific activities to encourage your students to listen, sing along, move their bodies, and act out the story. You don’t need to be a music expert—your enthusiasm and participation are enough to inspire your students.

Music learning sticks best when the teacher and students are having fun together.


Step 5: End with a Printable Activity

Wrap up the 8-lesson series with a hands-on activity, like finger puppets or themed printables. These reinforce the story and give students a tangible takeaway to extend the learning even after class is over.
