The Impacts of Music on the Brain

  Brain Development Sometimes in the fun of our weekly classes, it's easy to forget just how life-changing the benefits of music classes are for young children! One of the most significant benefits is in  how music and musical experiences impact brain development  - how the brain is wiring itself to ultimately forming the architecture of the adult brain. A staggering 90% of a child's brain develops by age 5.  Scientific research has underscored that it is the quality of a child's experiences in these early years that shapes how their brains develop and influences their ability to learn and succeed in school... and in life. "Between the ages of one and five, the brain goes through cycles of growth and streamlining, with experience playing a key role in engraving the circuits that will endure." ( TheirWorld Children's Charity article ) But it's not just future academic success that is affected.  The connections needed for many higher-level abilities like...

Masterful Teaching: Crossing the Midline Activities

  Masterful Teaching: Crossing the Midline Activities What is the midline? Think of the midline as an imaginary line down the middle of our bodies from our heads to between our feet Crossing the midline is important because: When children cross the midline, they are using both sides of their brain to coordinate smooth, controlled, complex movement. ‌ It is important to combine movement patterns that cross the body for daily tasks such as reading, writing, and tying shoelaces. ‌ The ability to cross the midline is necessary for tasks that involve both hands, where they work together to do a job... or for playing the piano or violin, for example. ‌ From  Importance of Crossing the Midline "Crossing the midline plays a part in everything we do!

It Can Take A Little Time

  It can take a little time... and that's okay! In Kindermusik, we intentionally build familiar routines and rituals into the class to help your child become comfortable and anticipate what comes next. For example, from the very first day, we will always begin and end class with the same two songs - the Hello Song and the Goodbye Song. This signals to your child that class is starting or ending. On average, children need four to six weeks to transition into a new class - even children who have been in Kindermusik before. For some children, it can take a little longer. We're all about the process and not performance here at Kindermusik, and so we just give them all the love, space, and understanding that they need! As time goes on, your child will learn the routine, become familiar with the songs, and look forward to seeing friends from class (and so will you!). Plus, once they become secure in the routines and rituals, the learning and enjoyment really take off! What you can do...
