You may think I'm being a bit outrageous with the title of this post - but I truly believe it is :)
The research about music and children's development is simply amazing! More and more, the eyes of the research community are turning to music as a vehicle to deliver a learning experience to children.
Early, positive, and age-appropriate experiences with music - like a Kindermusik programme - can have a remarkable and research-proven impact on your child's life :) Language and literacy, maths and pattern recognition skills, social and emotional development, and the ability to plan, guide and self regulate behaviour are all attributes you'll see blossoming in your Kindermusik child!
Kindermusik International have put together some fantastic resources, outlining the results of research into the ongoing benefits of Kindermusik. If you have a few D moments, they're well worth a read :)
Kindermusik - On the Path to Reading
Discovering Mathematics through Music
Music & Social-Emotional Development
Research aside, there are other amazing benefits of being a part of a Kindermusik class...the absolute joy you'll experience in a class and at home, the special bond you and your child will form in your special time together, the fun you and your family will have at home dancing and singing along with your Kindermusik CDs :)
With over thirty years developing early childhood music curricula and products, Kindermusik is the original and most trusted name in music and movement classes.
I can't wait to see which wonderful family will be joining us for next term - if you haven't become a follower yet, it's not too late!! I'll be choosing a winner on Thursday morning :)
Don't be shy - write us a comment ;) It's lovely learning about what everyone's doing to celebrate music with their families!
One more linky for today - some blogs from happy Kindermusik families around the world. If the research doesn't convince you, these surely will :)
