Sažetak

A musical game, like any game, is an important aspect of children’s lives. It is an activity that stimulates positive emotions and satisfies the inner needs of children. Games have to complement the life and education of every child on an almost daily basis. A game is considered to be the time during which children enjoy in their own fantasy and creativity. Children do not need a special adapting process to play and so is the case with singing games. Songs and play make children feel natural and safe. That is how they grow up, develop their psycho-physical skills and learn about new facts. Children have always been surrounded by various sounds, from their surroundings and nature to the lullabies sung by their mothers. Music is thus a natural phenomenon which greatly contributes to the general development of children even at an early age which is believed to be the best period to develop musical skills. Music primarily develops musical and therefore mental, aesthetic and physical skills as well as work habits. The work focuses on musical games for preschool children and younger primary school children. It shows the types of games, their application and goals, emphasising singing games. The author has been using the games that are included in this work in her work with “Osječki zumbići” children’s choir, i.e. with children who are four to nine years old.
