Unlock Hidden Learning Potential
Research demonstrates that when music is heard, from birth to age six, there is a developmental window of learning how to "unscramble" or "organize" the sound. There is deep satisfaction when true learning is comprehended and combined with experience: increased memory, and higher brain function required for math, science and engineering!
Improved Brain Function
A study conducted at the Northwestern University School of Communication concluded that musicians have enhanced brainstem function for the ability to distinguish speech in the midst of noise. If children can have music at an early age, they have a better chance of sifting through relevant and non-relevant information while sitting in a noisy, busy classroom. The Kraus lab found music to be a profound help to children in developing literacy skills and overcoming literacy disorders.
There is no better way to be on top of the literacy struggles of our day than to start music as early as possible!
