Priesthood leaders and music leaders should encourage Church members to use uplifting music in their homes, to have a copy of the hymnbook and the Children's Songbook, and to sing this music as families. Concerning the importance of music in the home, the First Presidency has said:

"The hymns can bring families to a spirit of beauty and peace and can inspire love and unity among family members. Teach your children to love the hymns. Sing them on the Sabbath, in home evening, during scripture study, at prayer time. Sing as you work, as you play, and as you travel together. Sing hymns as lullabies to build faith and testimony in your young ones" (First Presidency preface to Hymns, page x).

Members may use Church-produced recordings to accompany singing and to help them learn the hymns and Primary songs. These recordings are listed in the annual Church Materials Catalog.

Parents should encourage their children to receive instruction in music skills (see "Music Training").

The bishopric could assign sacrament meeting speakers to talk about using music in the home. Occasionally a family could sing a favorite hymn or Primary song as a musical selection in sacrament meeting.
