We use this sheet in our music classes at TLB Music when we teach conducting patterns to our students. It’s a fun way to introduce time signature to children by attaching a physical motion to each signature, making it easy to remember the rhythms. You can use anything you’d like as your conducting batons when practicing with your kids! In class, we use mallets turned backwards before graduating to the big baton. Pencils, straws, or your finger will work just as well!

I wrote this little song to use in our children’s music classes at TLB Music. With younger kids, we practice playing in 4/4 time, tapping drums on the first two beats of each measure, then resting for the 3rd and 4th. With older children, we play the melody on xylophones and keyboards. Click on the image for a downloadable PDF of the sheet!
