Music is important to our lives in ways too numerous to count—emotionally, expressively, cognitively, academically, and on and on. It is helpful to you as a parent, however, to recognize some of the benefits Kindermusik offers your child. Learning to play instruments such as the glockenspiel and recorder helps your child develop fine motor skills, hone visual perceptions, train auditory functions, and integrate learning.
This week we began a unit on European music and more specifically, Austrian music. We located these areas on a globe, listened to some regional music, played different instruments (including an accordion), and tried out our yodeling skills!
