"The purpose of this paper is to present which are the most common children’ singing voice production problems and to demonstrate what role it is the posture, articulation, breathing, movements, imaginations and vocal warm-ups in correction of children’s vocal production problems. The research methods used included observations and self-studies. 100 school children participated in this study. This research identified five key vocal production problems: 1. singing exclusively in the chest register; 2. “compressed” singing voice; 3. “too airy” or “veiled” voice; 4. “skinny” voice; 5. out-of-tune singing. The reasons for and the characteristics of several different kinds of vocal production issues and several remedial exercises for them are described in this paper. Keywords: children, development, singing ability, singing voice, vocal problems"
