Rhythm Train Friends | Week 1

A playful introduction to rhythm, music and movement.

Welcome to Week 1 of Rhythm Train Friends, an early childhood music program designed for families, homeschoolers and educators.

Through three guided lessons, children meet Wombat, Kangaroo and Possum as they explore rhythm through movement, voice, clapping and play.

In Week 1, children explore:

  • Wombat — ta: one sound per beat

  • Kangaroo — ti-ti: two sounds per beat

  • Possum — ti-ka ti-ka: four sounds per beat

Your free Week 1 download includes:

  • Visual PowerPoint program: introductory guidance, three lessons and a consolidation activity.

  • Lesson guides and Learning Snapshots: teaching guidance and tools to document observations and evidence of learning.

  • Printable activities: rhythm tracing, character puppets and the Rhythm Train activity.

Designed for learning through play

Rhythm Train Friends combines music, movement, creativity and early rhythmic understanding. Children are invited to identify, apply, demonstrate and create, while adults observe their learning and revisit ideas at their own pace.

Use the resources at home, in a homeschool setting or in an early learning environment. Repeat activities, follow your child's interests and build confidence one beat at a time.

This is Week 1 of a 10-week learning journey.
