PBS has great resources, especially their stuff on Jazz musicians. This page is fun, too. Kids can explore sound as it relates to up and down visually.

For anyone looking for musical games targeted towards the younger elementary grades, this is a great source to look to. It has all of your favorite PBS characters engaged in interesting musical activities such as painting, recording, and genre guessing. I'd recommend this site to all general music elementary teachers!

This website provides many musical games for children ages 3-6. There are games which include opportunities for children to create music, identify instrument sounds, and explore rhythms.

Some of these music games don't seem very educational to me, but I think that they offer a variety of musical style games which could be interested for my 5th graders. I think that the zen musical composition games aren't too "babyish" (as my students would say) for the 5th grade students. However, it's something I would need to explore more.

This is a great resource of early childhood music students. There are numerous games that will introduce children to different sounds, different genres and even how to create music and be expressive with music.

This site's purpose is to allow younger children opportunity to interact with music through games and listening. I explored Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, which I think would be perfect for my three year old. She can click using the arrows or mouse to create different sounds, and even explore different moods of music (happy, sad etc). The site also features other genres of music which is great to expose students to from an early age.

Simple music game website geared towards younger children. This would help allow young children to learn more about different instruments, especially ones they've seen on the TV show Daniel Tiger.

This is a fun and interactive way for pre-school or lower elementary aged kids to learn about music. They can explore many timbres of sound with familiar characters. I use this with my own children and it's a hit!

This website has a wide selection of music games for the young musician. Games are flash-based and are in a variety of musical genres. Many games require the user to compose in a specific style. Would work well on Chromebooks or computer lab.

This is a wonderful, interactive website appropriate for grade levels Kindergarten through 5th grade, with "Jam Sessions" on various genres in music. It uses videos and interactive games to teach students about the instruments, rhythms, and lyrics often used in that particular genre. Genres include hip-hop, country, salsa, reggae, jazz, blues, classical, and rock and roll.

Chuck Vanderchuck is a fantastic resource for teaching students about different genres found in music (not just classical!). Kids love the different sounds that genre-based instruments make, fun catch phrases that Chuck repeats throughout the site, and different historical facts about how each genre originated. Students are invited to move to music, arrange their own combos with different instruments, and engage in memory games to help them learn the content provided.

This website allows students to experiment with different genres of music. It gives students a chance to have their own "jam session."
