Movement, imitation and first words in songs
About Toddler Groove
Toddler Groove channels new walkers’ energy into music. Action songs, stop/go games and simple rhythm copying help toddlers practise listening, moving with control and joining in with a group.
Best for:
In class
What we do together
Action songs
Clap, stomp, jump and spin — big movements with a musical purpose.
Stop/go games
Freeze when the music stops to practise listening and self-control.
Body-part songs
Naming and moving body parts builds vocabulary through repetition.
Rhythm copying
Simple patterns on drums and shakers that toddlers copy back.
Development
What it supports
Every activity has a purpose. Here’s what parents typically notice across a term.
Motor skills
Marching, bouncing and turning to music build balance and coordination.
Vocabulary
Key words repeated in songs every week help first words stick.
Listening & attention
Stop/go and tempo games reward careful listening.
Social awareness
Watching, copying and taking turns alongside other toddlers.
A sample class
Toddler Groove (40 min)

Times in minutes. Activities are adapted on the day to suit the group.
Parent tip
Toddlers often watch first and join in later — watching is learning too.
