Sing & Learn

Following is the first of a series of 3 posts that are all about singing and how it is such fantastic fun. Not to mention how it is one of the easiest and most effective ways a child can learn about his world around him!

Have you ever watched a group of young children on the playground excitedly sing Ring Around the Rosey? Or observed a pre-schooler who has just mastered her ABCs, proudly singing them over and over? Maybe you’ve noticed your own child singing along with the radio. It’s evident – all children love to sing!

The voice is every child’s natural instrument and, therefore, an important part of learning and development. And many proponents of music education have long agreed that children can, and should, learn to sing.

Joyful participation in singing with family, friends and classmates, and through activities like Kindermusik, results in comprehending the beauty and expressiveness of the human voice. Children develop the ability to use their voice well in singing, chanting, reciting and reading aloud. It also encourages a lifelong love of music.

Singing is part of every Kindermusik class – whether it’s babies responding to music in Kindermusik Village^® class or the pre-schooler learning simple songs in the upcoming Kindermusik ABC Music & Me™.  Singing, integrated with movement, instrument play, literature, and pretend play, is a cornerstone of the Kindermusik experience.
