WHAT ARE THEY AND HOW THEY HELP CHILDREN
Musograms or Muzograms are graphic symbols embedded in a given piece of music.
Children follow the graphic symbols with their hands while listening to the piece of music.
Check the following video to find out what exactly is a musogram.
As you see in the video it's a wonderful tool for a music teacher for many reasons.

Musograms are also great for introducing music masterpieces from different eras to children in a fun way.

Using these graphic symbols children learn hand and finger control which helps with their instrument playing.
