Music is the language of children’s souls,while play is the basic way of children’s activities,both of which are willing and indispensable for young children.The "Kindergarten Education Guidelines(Trial)" clearly states: "Kindergartens should take play as the basic activity.Educational activities should pay attention to comprehensiveness,fun and activity,and education should be integrated into life games." The researchers’ exploration in the form of gamification of music activities is the requirement of national policies for kindergarten music activities,and it is also the requirement of children’s cognitive development.At present,more and more teachers recognize the value of gamification of activities and apply it in practice,but there are still certain practical problems.Combined with the practical problems of music activities,better integrate music and games,improve children’s initiative to participate in music activities,enhance children’s pleasure in participating in music activities,and at the same time have important significance for the development of kindergarten teachers,and apply the essential characteristics of games to music activities,that is,pleasure,initiative,virtuality and orderliness.In this study,the kindergarten children of W Kindergarten in C City were taken as the research object,and the paradigm of action research was combined with observation method and interview method to carry out practical exploration.Before the formal implementation of the action study,the researchers entered the class,learned about the actual situation of gamification of music activities in kindergarten children through observation and interview methods,analyzed the problems in the development,and analyzed the causes.Based on the actual situation of observation and interview,and based on the essential characteristics of the game,the objectives,principles,processes and evaluation of the teaching activity plan of this action research were determined.In order to enhance the gamification of music activities in kindergarten,three rounds of action research were conducted with co-teachers,each round of action research consisted of two music activities,and the research method of design-implementation-reflection-re-practice was explored.Based on observations and interviews,the researchers obtained the results of action research,conducted a performance analysis and put forward the precautions for the implementation of gamification of music activities,which promoted the physical and mental health development of children and improved the professional ability of teachers.Finally,the researchers put forward educational suggestions for gamification of music activities,including improving teachers’ music literacy and teaching ability,gamification design according to music activity goals,enriching the content of gamified music activities,and attaching importance to scientific and effective music activity evaluation.
