Our brains process music in a similar way to how we process language. To develop into successful and lifelong readers, young learners need to learn that words – not unlike music – are made up of discrete sounds. Later, they will use that knowledge of sounds to read & build words. Research shows that children with these developed skills are more successful when learning to read, than others.<\/span><\/p>\n

Music also teaches children self-regulation skills, something that is worked on throughout our Preschool year. Self-regulation is the ability to control our actions, thoughts, and feelings. Music & movement helps children learn to tell their bodies what and when to stop, go, and perform specific actions. Whether it’s participating in a group music activity, transitioning to a different activity, or sharing instruments among their peers, children are learning and practicing self-regulation <\/span>skills – skills that they will need to rely on continually throughout their school and social careers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Musical Minds will engage and excite your young learners, and we look forward to watching them grow throughout our program!<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”3116″ img_size=”medium” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
