Introducing the Christmas Musicals Mini-Course

The brand new course from Music in Our Homeschool by Gena Mayo is called the Christmas Musicals Mini-Course, and it’s your ticket to three weeks of music appreciation lessons tailored for the holiday season. This course is designed to inject the magic of musical theater into your homeschooling routine, giving your children a chance to explore the world of Christmas-themed musicals.

What’s Inside the Mini-Course

The Christmas Musicals Mini-Course covers three beloved Christmas musicals:

  1. A Christmas Carol: the Musical (by Alan Menken and Lynn Ahrens)
  2. Elf: the Musical (by Matthew Sklar and Chad Beguelin)
  3. Irving Berlin’s White Christmas

Each week’s lesson provides a wealth of information and resources, making it incredibly easy for you to implement “Christmas School” throughout December. Here’s what you can expect with each week’s lesson:

  • Information about the composers and lyricists.
  • Background information on the musical.
  • A synopsis of the story.
  • A list of songs in the musical.
  • Several songs to watch from each musical (embedded videos right there in the course).
  • A musical concept lesson for each musical.
  • An online quiz to test your knowledge.
  • Embedded video performances of each entire musical.
  • Additional optional resources to extend your learning, such as books to read, additional movie versions to watch, and art lessons.

How Long do the Lessons Take?

The best part? The lessons are entirely flexible in terms of length. You can spend as little as 15 minutes a day, perfect for a quick, engaging educational activity. Or, extend your learning to up to 3 hours by watching the entire musical in addition to the included lessons.

It’s even a great opportunity for “Family Christmas Movie Nights,” creating cherished memories as you enjoy these heartwarming Christmas classics together.

For Whom Is The Christmas Musicals Mini-Course Ideal?

The Christmas Musicals Mini-Course is designed for upper elementary through high school students. However, since every family’s standards and preferences may vary, it’s recommended to preview the content, especially the full musicals, to ensure they align with your expectations for appropriateness. (Every director makes stylist changes to costumes or how to portray a scene–you just never know exactly what to expect!)

Nevertheless, the embedded shorter videos within the course are generally considered suitable for middle-school-aged children and most are appropriate for elementary-aged children.
