Why KINDERMUSIK®?
Children thrive on music. It’s one of the best vehicles for learning in early childhood development. Kindermusik® takes musical learning to the next level; our curriculum is proven to improve a child’s brain development. And for parents it’s a fun thing to do with kids!
Music Matters!
Psychologists, neuro-scientists, and experts in early childhood development have demonstrated that music does more for children than bring them joy; it helps their brain cells make the connections needed for virtually every kind of intelligence. The following research is the bedrock of Kindermusik®’s curriculum.
When young children are consistently engaged by music in an age-appropriate, socially accepting environment, they benefit at many levels:
*Reading: They gain the phonological processing, spoken language, and comprehension skills that are the foundation of reading.
*Quantitative: They build the spatial-temporal and reasoning skills required for math, science, and engineering.
*Social: They develop social and emotional skills that are essential for school readiness, like the ability to regulate their responses and relate to others in complex ways.
*Physical: By moving and dancing to music and playing simple instruments, children improve their gross and fine motor skills.
*Creative: Activities that encourage freedom within a fun and friendly structure spark their creativity.
And of course, they develop a lifelong love of music!
