How to Play Stacking Snowmen Music Counting Game in Simple Meters

Our students have loved building their own snowmen as they play this music counting game in simple meters.

The gameplay is simple: mix and match snowmen tops, middles, and bottoms to build snowmen!

But you have to watch out – because the snowmen must be created with all three correct time meters!

In addition to creating 16 mix ‘n’ match rhythm snowmen in each meter, some students like to match the exact rhythm for each snowman piece (e.g. two quarter notes for the top, middle, and bottom).

However you choose to build your snowmen, finish up with clapping and counting the snowmen.

See how it’s played in our video…
