Make sure to check out my most recent planner HERE.
2022 is going to be a great year in singing time! That said, my 2022 Singing Time Planner is now available to help get you organized and off to a great start!
I’ve seen LOTS of singing time planners out there. I personally like to plan a month ahead and this planner easily lets me do so. One exception is I like to have a yearly outline summary using the Music for Singing Time 2022 found HERE.
Along with to my annual digital playlist we hand out as a Christmas gift. Check my Digital Playlist for The Old Testament HERE.
What’s in the Planner
My 2022 Singing Time Planner lets you plan weekly, monthly or the entire year if you like! Personally, I like to plan monthly but do what works best for you and your primary!
Theme & Songs
The theme listed at the top of the page is simply Old Testament – pretty straight forward ;). It’s what we’re studying in Come Follow Me this year. The 3 songs listed below the theme are the monthly Music for Singing Time 2022 song suggestions.
Weekly Date & Topic
The date and topic coincide with each Sunday of every month! The weekly topic is from Come Follow Me-Primary. It may come in handy if you want to try and incorporate that topic into singing time somehow.
Weekly Suggested Songs
The songs that are randomly at the bottom of each weekly block are songs that are suggested in the Come Follow Me-Primary curriculum (as noted at the bottom of the planner). If a song was suggested in the primary curriculum and it’s already a monthly singing time song, I’ve left it off for that particular week because it’s already listed at the top of the planner. Clear as mud? 😉
How to Access
My 2022 Singing Time Planner can be downloaded from my Resource Library. To receive initial access to my Resource Library, click on the button at the bottom of this post and the link to my Resource Library will be emailed to you. If you’ve already joined and have access, go to my Resource Library link that was emailed to you. Filing instructions for locating my planner at my Resource Library are also at the bottom of this post.
Each monthly planner is its own document so you can easily print one at a time. If you want to fill in the document digitally before printing, here’s how!
I use a Mac so if it’s different on a PC, I apologize!
- Download the singing time schedule PDF document
- Open the document in Preview and click on Tools > Annotate > Text
- A text box will appear in the middle of the document. Drag and drop it to where you’d like to type text
- Repeat with more text boxes (copy and paste works well) until you’ve filled the document
- Easy!
I’ve left lots of space for you to cater this planner to your primary’s needs especially in the “Notes” section.
Using a Singing Time Planner
Transition Time
Our primary likes to sing during “Transition” time so I’ve added this to my schedule.
For 2022, our primary will sing “The Books in The Old Testament” during “Transition” time. So I simply write that in this section.
Check out more details for my Interactive Bookshelf for The Old Testament HERE.
Singing Time
The “Singing Time” section is where you can fill in what you intend to teach during singing time. This is usually your focus area for singing time that week.
Other
Some primaries still celebrate birthdays with a birthday song, or welcome visitors, etc. This is a way to accommodate any “other” singing you may do in singing time. It’s also nice just for some more writing space ;).
Ideas for the “other” section can include:
- The 2 suggested monthly Music for Singing Time songs that you aren’t teaching during singing time that month
- Suggested songs from the Come Follow Me – Primary curriculum (the ones written at the bottom of each weekly block)
- Wiggle/movement songs (great for Jr!). I have a Wiggle Worm Jar full of Wiggle Songs (just what those kids need coming from Sacrament Meeting!). Find details on that jar HERE.
Blank Planner
I also have a blank singing time schedule that would work with any month and any year. You simply fill it out by hand or by using my instructions above.
Singing Time Schedule To-Go
Want to take planning your singing time one step further? I have a Singing Time Schedule To-Go utilizing my Singing Time Planner!

Im wondering if you have directions how to play your activities? I think they all look awesome and super fun but I’m needing a little clarity. Is there a section with instructions that I missed? Thanks for any help!
Hi Danielle!
I’m not quite sure I understand what you are looking for. My singing time planner here simply helps you plan out your singing time. I have specific lesson plan posts all through my website with details for all the various singing time activities. My page here may help if you are looking for something specific (like songs, holidays, seasons, etc.):

If that doesn’t help, let me know and I’ll try to answer your question better. Thanks!
