Let's Make Music Practice Chart
Kids control their time with their very own music practice chart. Listen as they take responsibility with this original Crayola® activity.
1. Using Crayola Washable Markers write "My Practice Chart" at the top of a piece of posterboard. Use a ruler to draw a line under your poster title.
2. Next, draw vertical lines from the bottom of the paper to the horizontal line. These are the white keys of the piano where you will record the names of the musical pieces that you practice.
3. To make the piano's black keys, draw rectangles from the top horizontal line in the middle of every other white key.
4. Lightly color in the black keys with Crayola Colored Pencils. You will write the length of your practice sessions for each song on the corresponding black keys.
5. Jazz up your chart with Crayola Glitter Glue designs and lettering.
6. Tie a ribbon around a Crayola Fine Line Marker and tape it to the chart to record practice times and songs.
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
Glitter Glue—
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD—Small parts. Not for children under 3 years. Not for use on skin.
String-Like Materials—Includes string, raffia, lacing, yarn, ribbon, and other similar material. Children 3 years and younger should not be given any string-like material that is longer than 12 inches. Close adult supervision is essential whenever children use string-like material. When crafts are to be worn around the necks of children 8 years and younger, attach the ends of the “string-like material” with clear adhesive tape, which allows easy release of the bond if the craft becomes entangled or caught on equipment. For children older than 8 years, the ends of the “string-like material” may be tied and knotted.
