Playing music

Once you have launched your class in the playground, you can connect music. Follow the steps below to connect music.

1. Open your favorite music player in a new tab in Chrome. It is important to note you are unable to connect via an app on your desktop, you must have the music playing through a chrome tab.

2. Go back to Recess.tv and press the music button in the lower left-hand corner of the page.

5. The Last step is to press Share

Now you can toggle back to the tab with your music and press play


We suggest you set your in-browser music volume to 50% volume.

Teaching with a mic

If you'd like, you can teach with an external mic (i.e., not the one embedded in your computer). We suggest all instructors wear their favorite Bluetooth headphones while teaching. This allows you to speak comfortably while teaching and gives access to our music-instructor volume toggle, which is a client favorite. The best type of microphone is one with an earpiece and built-in mic so you can hear your clients speaking to you. For more info, check out our videos How to Give Access to Mic and Camera and Setting Up Your Bluetooth Headphone With Mic!

Muting participants

Click on the three dots (setting button) in the upper right corner of the Playground then select Mute All. You can individually mute each participant by hovering over their video and pressing Mute.
