These beautiful, lesser-known stories from various parts of Africa, along with simple songs for singing along, are a treasure for music teachers, educators, parents, and children in grades 2 to 5. Each of the orally transmitted stories includes traditional songs, rhythms, and diverse activities in the areas of singing, making music, dancing, creative design, and dramatic presentation. From this, a varied and carefully prepared material for educational practice has been developed. The flexible components for interdisciplinary work in music, German, art, and science classes include suggestions for the specific course of the lesson, worksheets and blackboard illustrations, tips for elaborating on the songs and instrumental arrangements, as well as insights into the world of Africa with cultural and regional aspects. A general section offers additional inspiration.
