The Music One-to-One project is developing ways of working in music with parents and carers and their under two-year-olds with particular emphasis on playful, communicative activities. Practitioners try not to take a strong, controlling lead; the sessions are informal, with lots of free play, chat and discussion.
The Music One-to-One practitioners have spent a lot of time collecting a wide range of interesting resources to bring along. Although we have some special items of musical equipment, we also show how simple, everyday items can become valuable playthings and encourage parents to observe how their children play with these simple things and what they are gaining. See the Music One-to-One website for video clips of typical activities at www.education.ex.ac.uk/ music-one2one.
