How to Play Rabbit Rhythms Music Theory Game

Your students will easily learn how to play Rabbit Rhythms:

• Each student picks a rabbit game piece and garden row
• Teacher flips up a rhythm card
• Students figure out if the rhythm card is a measure in 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, or 5/4 and race to slap the correct meter first
• Students can opt to clap & count measure for a bonus move forward
• Repeat until the first student has hopped across the vegetable garden!

If you want a gentle-play option, give each student a die and require them to roll the correct number for the time signature before they move forward (2 = 2/4, 3 = 3/4, 4 = 4/4, 5 = 5/4).

Play Rabbit Rhythms Music Theory Game in group piano lessons

Rabbit Rhythms is designed to be played with 2-6 students. The gameplay is the same, regardless of the number of students you have.

If you have more than six players, instead of having the rabbits hop down the vegetable garden row, you can flip the game board sideways and for each turn, the rabbit can hop into a new row (this will give them six plays before the game is over).

Members have access to a bonus 18 x 24″ game board available for members to use in group piano lessons.
