About the Author: Lynn Kleiner

Lynn Kleiner

Lynn Kleiner has shaped early childhood music education since 1978, building Music Rhapsody into a thriving network serving thousands of young learners across day cares, preschools, and elementary schools. Her work has earned recognition from prestigious organizations including the Oppenheim Award, the Dove Award, and the Creative Child Award, and she maintains an active presence as a presenter for the American Orff Schulwerk Association, NAfME, and international early childhood and music education conferences.

Kleiner's approach integrates music, movement, and hands-on learning in ways that resonate with early childhood development. Her percussion instruments, developed through REMO, reflect her deep understanding of what engages young musicians and captures their imaginations.

Why we love this

This kit brings together everything you need to create an immersive, multi-sensory learning experience without scrambling to source materials separately. The included props (elephant puppet, jungle drum, hand stamp, and tote bag) transform songs and activities from abstract ideas into tangible, playful explorations that hold young children's attention while building genuine musical engagement.

What to expect

Stepping into a vibrant, imaginative jungle alive with creature sounds, rhythms, and the infectious energy of young children discovering music together. The combination of songs, props, and activities creates an environment where learning feels like play, and every child feels invited to participate.

Who it's for

Classroom teachers, music educators, and childcare providers working with preschool and early elementary-age children. This kit is designed for educators who want to weave music, movement, storytelling, and craft into cohesive, engaging lessons without extensive preparation.

How to get the most out of it

  • Let children handle and explore the jungle drum and elephant puppet during songs so they're actively participating rather than watching. Ownership of the props deepens their investment in the material.
  • Use the hand stamp as a reward or transition tool between activities. Young learners respond powerfully to multisensory feedback that reinforces their musical participation.
  • Vary which child gets to hold the puppet or play the drum across different songs. This prevents any one child from dominating and keeps energy high as roles rotate.

How to use it

Use this kit as a thematic unit during a semester or month-long exploration of animals and habitats, or pull individual songs and activities into your regular classroom music time. The 76-page book offers enough depth that you can return to the material repeatedly, introducing new songs and activities as children grow more familiar with the jungle setting.

Skills your students will build

  • Beat awareness and steady pulse through rhythmic activities with percussion
  • Call-and-response singing patterns
  • Animal movement and creative expression through music
  • Listening and following multistep musical and movement instructions
  • Ensemble participation and turn-taking in group activities
