Hearing song for kids: Learn how ears work and how the inner ear helps balance. Two ears find left/right sounds, loud vs soft, high vs low—a clear Five Senses lesson with animal examples.

Five Senses – Hearing: Learn how ears work, how two ears find sounds left/right, and how the inner ear helps us balance! This catchy kids’ song features animal comparisons (barn owl, elephant, snake & turtle), loud vs. soft, and simple movement cues perfect for preschool & kindergarten science.

Sing, point, and move with Ollie Rex as we explore:

• What our ears do (hearing high/low, loud/soft)

• Why two ears help us locate sounds (left/right)

• How the inner ear supports balance

• How different animals hear the world

Use it for circle time, homeschool, science centers, and your Five Senses playlist.

What Kids Learn

Hearing basics: soft vs. loud, high vs. low

Sound localization: using two ears to tell left/right

Balance connection: tiny loops in the inner ear help steady our bodies

Animal hearing: owl (super hearing), elephant (low rumbles), snake & turtle (different ear setups)

Classroom / Parent Tips

On “Left or right? — Point!” have kids point the direction they think the sound comes from.

On “Clap so loud—now whisper small,” pause the track briefly for a dramatic contrast.

Try a “one-leg balance” challenge after each chorus to feel the inner ear at work.
