Music can stimulate children’s natural curiosity and desire to learn as they explore the diversity, sounds, rhythms, and emotions of different music genres and instruments.
Music can also help children develop brain responses to music and speech, which are important for language development and communication. Studies indicate that early exposure to music can enhance infants’ capacity to identify patterns in intricate sounds, and that music intervention can have a positive impact on speech development.
