Music Gift-Boosting Activities

by Molly Hewitt

The urge to make music crosses all age and cultural divides. Anyone who has drummed their fingers, whistled a happy tune, hummed along to the radio, or cooed a lullaby has participated in the global orchestra.

Whether your family has a mini-Mozart or a tone-deaf tot, these activities will get those tiny toes a tappin'. And while perfection may require practice, fun can be had just by joining in!
