🍎 Fall is the perfect time to weave apples into your homeschool lessons—and why not add music to the mix? In this episode of the Music in Our Homeschool Podcast, Gena Mayo brings you a fun and easy 15-minute music lesson all about apples, part of the Music in Nature Series.

Your kids will:

  • Learn a playful folk chant with motions ("Away Up High in the Apple Tree")
  • Explore a lively World War II swing tune made famous by The Andrews Sisters ("Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree")
  • Sing along with the classic Johnny Appleseed folk song ("The Lord’s Been Good to Me")

Along the way, you’ll discover the story of Johnny Appleseed, enjoy rhythm games, and even try some swing dance steps. Best of all, this lesson works for multiple ages, so your whole family can join in together.

This lesson is also part of Gena’s Music Lessons for Holidays and Special Days course, making it easy to celebrate Johnny Appleseed Day (September 26) with music.

👉 Listen now to bring apples, music, and family fun into your homeschool!
