Multilingual Songbook: „Singt mit! – in vielen Sprachen“

Sing Along! – Children’s Songs in Many Languages

The multilingual songbook “Singt mit! – in vielen Sprachen” by Wolfgang Hering is the ideal companion for celebrations, projects, and everyday musical activities in daycare centers, schools, and families. Especially during celebrations, when children and parents from different cultural backgrounds come together, singing together creates an atmosphere in which everyone feels welcome. Music connects people – regardless of their native language.

The songbook brings together traditional and new children’s songs from more than 30 linguistic regions. In addition to German, the book includes songs in Turkish, Arabic, Ukrainian, Kurmanji, Mandarin, Hebrew, Tamazight, and Vietnamese, among others. Children can playfully discover different languages and cultures while also recognizing familiar sounds from their own heritage languages.

All songs include musical notation, chords, and Boomwhacker color markings, and are complemented by play ideas and methodological suggestions. This makes the book particularly suitable for educational practice in daycare centers and primary schools, as well as for musical projects, family celebrations, and intercultural events. The songs have been recorded by native-speaking singers and are also available as audio downloads in the extended book version.

The book features a durable spiral binding, allowing it to lie flat and making it easy to use for singing along – ideal for everyday use with groups of children. The author is the musician and educator Wolfgang Hering, who has been active for many years in the fields of children’s music, music education, and intercultural learning.

“Singt mit! – in vielen Sprachen” makes multilingualism audible and tangible. The songbook invites children and adults to sing together, discover new languages, and experience diversity as an enrichment. It is a musical tool for lively educational work – and for many joyful moments together.
