Let every child discover their musical voice with the KS1 Music collection from Hands-On Education. Specially designed for ages 5–7, this collection brings together engaging lesson packs, printables, and creative projects that make music accessible, joyful, and educational—whether you’re teaching in the classroom or at home.

KS1 Music resources cover the full spectrum of early music education: singing and vocal games, rhythm activities, body percussion, listening skills, and simple composing exercises. Children are encouraged to experiment with sounds around them, clap and step to different rhythms, use everyday objects as percussion, and explore dynamics, tempo, and pitch through fun, imaginative games.

Lesson packs frequently connect music to wider learning, blending with science (like the Five Senses or sound exploration), art (drawing to music or creating nature soundscapes), and physical education (movement and action songs). Creative printables, movement cards, and listening journals foster self-expression and build confidence, supporting every kind of learner.

Comprehensive teacher notes, printable worksheets, and flexible activity ideas ensure each music project is simple to deliver and adaptable for any setting. Projects often include group activities to encourage teamwork and listening, as well as solo explorations for building independent musicianship.

With a focus on creativity and enjoyment, the KS1 Music shop collection is regularly updated with new topics and seasonal ideas—keeping musical learning fresh and inspiring all year long. Browse to find resources that support national curriculum requirements, help children make meaningful connections, and celebrate the unique sounds of each child’s world. Music with Hands-On Education means every child gets to sing, play, move, and shine.
