Let's Explore Our Voices

Here's a fun way to help your preschooler explore a very basic instrument: his or her voice. Demonstrate the steps below and invite your child to do the same:

• "This is my speaking voice" (spoken normally).


• "This is my quiet voice" (spoken in a whisper).


• "This is my calling voice" (spoken loudly).


• "This is my singing voice" (sung).
