How do music and movement supercharge brainpower?
The combination of music and movement engages children in multisensory learning experiences that ignite all areas of development. Kindermusik activities are designed to enhance cognitive, language, physical, creative, and social-emotional development, while boosting school readiness.
Social-Emotional
Group musical play boosts healthy expression, empathy, relationship building, and inner balance.
Cognitive
Music education builds listening skills, promotes memory and recall, and strengthens executive function.
Fine Motor Movement
Playing instruments and doing fingerplays help strengthen the small hand muscles needed for critical tasks like writing.
Whole Body Movement
Moving to music builds core strength, develops eye-hand coordination, and stimulates the vestibular system.
Language: Receptive
Group music making enhances a child’s ability to follow directions and understand language.
Language: Expressive
Vocal play activities boost phonemic awareness, while singing familiar songs enhances vocabulary and speech
Musical
Group music classes develop vocal skills, music appreciation, and a foundation for formal music instruction.
