Benefits of Music in
Early Childhood Education
Research indicates:
| Cognitive, social, listening, language, and psychomotor skills are enhanced through musical exposure. | |
| Large and small motor skills are enhanced through musical movement exploration and playing rhythm instruments. | |
| The earlier music is introduced, the more potential a child has for learning. Exposure to music rewires neural circuits in the brain. | |
| Creating loving attachments and sharing quality time with your children have a powerful impact on their emotional development and learning abilities. | |
| Songs, movement and musical games of childhood have been called “brilliant neurological exercises” that introduce children to speech patterns, sensory motor skills and essential movement skills. | |
| Early music experiences increase spatial-temporal reasoning and the learning of mathematical concepts. | |
| The highest level of music aptitude occurs immediately after birth. Infants possess an abundance of genes and synapses that immediately make them ready for learning music |
