Bim Bum

This Clapping Song is great for:

  • Using as a brain break (clapping games help improve concentration!)
  • Co-ordination
  • Teaching the rhythmic element tika-ti (2 semiquavers, quaver / 2 sixteenth notes, quaver).
  • Practising the melodic element 'fa'.
  • Singing an octave interval (from do to high do).
  • Try singing in rhythm names or solfa with the actions for an increased challenge!
