STAR RATING 4/5

Anyone looking to use music in their work with children and young people should take a close look at this resource, writes Simon Antrobus.

The music making resource pack provides a step-by-step guide to engaging children in making music. It is rich with resources and practical guidance that are accessible and well put across.

Hard copy text is complemented by CD-Rom based support and an audio CD that has music to assist with the activities.

It also provides excellent examples to help learning and development.

Written in a straightforward style, the activities are helped by not relying heavily on expensive musical equipment.

But those running the workshop may need to be a confident beginner or have some musical background.
