Monkeys on the Bed

Free Visual Support:Monkeys on the Bed (PDF)

This visual support is designed to help children participate in the song “5 Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed.” It is most engaging for children who at the early emerging language stage of development. This dynamic visual support is most effective when it is present in a child’s visual field during the singing of the song. As the song progresses and monkeys “fall off the bed,” either the child or his partners should reinforce the action of “falling” by removing a monkey from the bed until no monkeys remain. The video tutorial briefly discusses the use of this support and assembly instructions.

  • “I have been using the volume meter you shared with us having made some modifications that correspond with my music curriculum. It has been quite successful in the music classroom and the students respond well to the visual. Just wanted to thank you and share some successes.” Kim Oden, Music teacher
