Bookopolis Using Music Effectively in Your Toddler or Preschool Story Hour Play music as children enter or leave the story hour room. Playing instrumental or familiar children's music can create a friendly and inviting environment. Having music playing before story hour begins also creates an opportunity for the story hour presenter to turn off the music and thus signal the beginning of story hour. Begin and end story hour with a song. A welcome song is an important part of story hour or a preschool circle time. I define a welcome song merely as the first song of the story hour which welcomes participation. It should signal the start of story hour. Here are some song suggestions for your story hour program. Close the story hour with a goodbye song. Peek-a-Boo: Songs for Young Children album and Turn-A-Round on Hap Palmer's Getting to Know Myself album. Use contemporary children's music in different musical styles. Don't limit your music to one or two artists. Use music to set the pace and redirect attention. Young children can be easily distracted.

YALSAblog | The official blog of the Young Adult Library Services Association Greetings, YALSA members and interested parties! The first month of the journey of this year’s presidential theme, Striving for Equity Using YALSA’s Teen Services Competencies for Library Staff is nearly over, and soon we will be looking at equity issues through the lens of each of the ten competencies. But before we move into August, I want to express appreciation to the many members and others who recently have taken the time to talk to me about what YALSA means to them, how YALSA could help them in their day job, and how fulfilling working with teens can be. All of this makes me full of gratitude. So before we move into the month-by-month examination of the theme, I decided to explore how in this time of inequity, outrage, and discord, gratitude can help break through the negativity and show us the path to achieving our goals. Diana Butler Bass writes about this subject in her book Grateful (HarperOne, ISBN: 9780062659477, 2018).
