Singing games and games without singing are games created by children which the older children carried over to the younger ones. They are important in the life a child. Through games, children meet their surroundings. They meet music by including it in their games, and it is well known children love music and singing games. They love listening to others sing, but they also like to join in and sing along. They like being a part of musical activities, and by being a part of them allows them to develop their musical abilities. Educators have the important task of introducing children to first folklore songs and singing games in kindergarten through musical activities. Except through musical activities in kindergarten, children can become “better acquainted” to folklore by joining a folklore ensemble. Folklore ensembles are lead by adult directors, competent in the field of folklore. Folklore directors should often go through professional improvement by attending workshops, seminars and reading literature. They are also in charge of choosing the choreography. Before choosing the choreography which they will teach the children, they should know the abilities of the children in the section, and the ages of the children. According to those, they should choose the choreography. Except choosing the choreography, the directors organize what and how they will do at the rehearsals. It is important to allow freedom during dancing and playing to the children, but also to choose the roles for the performances so there would not be any confusion on the stage. Singing games can be categorized as games with rules and as pretend games. If kids are playing on their own, adults should not interfere, but it is important to choose which child will play which role for the stage. After analysing the interviews with the folklore directors, and after watching the choreographies of three different ensembles, it can be concluded that the directors work has been improved in their work with the children and in creating age appropriate choreographies. Educators in kindergartens and folklore directors should have the same task of putting the child first, and perfectionism second.
