Hot 'N Cold Singing Time Review

Camille's Primary Ideas: Singing Time Binder note - Part 2 Singing Time Organization Series
This note stays in the back of my singing time binder – ALWAYS!  It’s a simple clip art image of a note, printed on card stock and laminated. When we play, I put a piece of tape on the back so it can be stuck around the room.
To play, a child goes out into the hallway. Meanwhile, another child hides the note somewhere in the Primary room. The child in the hallway is called back in. In order to find the note, the Primary sings softer and louder to guide him/her to the note.
 
The louder the Primary sings, the closer the child is to the note.  The softer the Primary sings, the further away child is to the note.
 
The kids LOVE this activity and will sing any song over and over again until each child has had a turn or you run out of time.
 
Here’s a second activity that I played with my Primary a few weeks ago…

Word King/Queen Singing Time Review

For this activity, you need any type of crown:
  • Make one out of construction paper
  • Grab a free one from Burger King and cover it in tin foil and add jewels
  • Find a pre-made crown like this one (Amazon affiliate link):

For Older Primary Children

Write the words of a song on the board. Pick a child to come be the king or queen and wear the crown. The child stands so they cannot see the board.
 
Choose a word from the song and circle it. The Primary then sings the song but does not sing the word that is circled. The word king/queen has to figure out what word was not sung.
 
Once the word is determined, erase that word. Repeat with a new king/queen, new word, erasing until most of the song is erased.
 

For Younger Primary Children

Send a child out into the hallway.  Tell the rest of the Primary what the word is. Post the words using this flip chart format as needed. When the word in the song is sung, sing it very loudly. This makes it easier for the young king/queen to figure out.
 
Repeat until all children have had a turn.

  1. Cute! We do a similar game called "Word Nerd." I have one of the kiddos wear nerdy glasses (I use the 3-D glasses with the lens' removed) and tape the word that we will not be singing to the glasses so they can't see them. They look like a nerd wearing the glasses, thus the name. The kids sing the entire song, minus the word on the glasses. Probably my Primary's favorite game of all time!

    1. What is it about singing opera? My senior kids love to sing opera "like me". Um…I'm going to take that as a compliment. 🙂 Love the spinner idea!
