Why our children need music
What exactly does music do to us and how does it help our children? MomaSquad gives you an insight into the importance and effects of music for your child, because it is not for nothing that music is considered a cultural asset and is even taught as a subject in school.
Basically, every child is musical, whether they are aware of it or not, whether they are being encouraged or not. Surely you have watched your child sing or dance and see how much fun it is. Small children in particular still live out their enthusiasm for music openly. They move as they please and sing as loud as they can because they haven’t yet learned what sounds “wrong” or looks “weird”. Make sure that your child can let off steam as carefree as possible for as long as possible, this strengthens their self-confidence and may show you very early on where talents lie and where they don’t.
Whether to fall asleep, to calm down or just on the side, even babies like music. It doesn’t matter to the little ones whether the melody comes from the CD player, the teddy bear or their favorite toy. In this article we will show you which music you can play to your baby . You can find a large selection of great music boxes here.
Music challenges and encourages
Music not only has a positive effect on adults, it also encourages our children. It helps to train and connect both hemispheres of the brain and also develops your child’s motor skills, intellect and emotions. By making music together, your child gains a sense of group and learns how to make a difference as a small part of a larger whole, such as a single singer in a choir or a guitarist in a large band. This is how your child feels strong.
Through music, your child can feel connected to others and also gets a sense of recognition when they are really good at their field. Especially holistic projects in which music is combined with theater and movement promote your child’s creativity and social skills. Music is more than just a hobby or a distraction from everyday school life. It gives your child the opportunity to realize themselves, to be productive and playfully promotes their performance orientation. Nevertheless, a certain balance should be found so that your child is challenged and encouraged without feeling overwhelmed.
No culture without music
Music has its own language and enables people to communicate with each other regardless of culture, age and language area. It is not for nothing that there is no people in history without music. It is part of every culture and is even used as a therapeutic option today because it has been found to affect our emotions and affect our psyche. That’s why it’s important that those children in particular come into contact with music who receive little musical encouragement from home. For this reason there is the school subject music, in which basic knowledge and the fun of making music should be taught.
