The Benefits of Music for Children

What are the benefits of music for children?

Children who engage in musical activities develop skills well beyond musical understanding. With your guidance, your child will blossom in confidence and develop a greater sense of self within the online group setting. Music making is relational, and through singing you can strengthen your bond with your child. Singing lullabies is a wonderful example of that.

Studies show that music education enhances children’s ability to concentrate, improves literacy and numeracy skills, enhances coordination, and benefits social and emotional well being.

Singing makes us happy! It’s true! When we sing, our brain releases chemicals that elevates our mood : )

And when we sing together, there is an added benefit of feeling connected to others.
