Welcome to my holiday elementary music activities homepage! I hope you are able to find the things you need for your elementary music classroom throughout the year. Because I mainly teach kindergarten, many of these resources are geared more towards early elementary. However, you will find some upper elementary mixed in! (I also have more upper elementary resources in my shop.) Use the tabs above to jump to a specific holiday or season! Click on the images to see more info!
