Why is music so important to babies?

At this pre-linguistic stage your child’s hearing abilities develop in preparation for the job ahead of learning to talk. Now is the time to engage, enhance and simply play with sound – and there is no better way to do that than with music. Neuro-science has proven that engaging in musical activities with your child will improve brain development.

What you’ll notice…

As your baby becomes familiar with music, they will begin to predict the end of section changes. This means your baby is digesting the music; making sense of it for themselves. This is your baby beginning a life-long relationship with music.

It's FUN! Parents and children learn to make music together. There's plenty of activities to keep your young learner engaged using our high quality classroom instruments and resources.

Why do music with your baby?

Independent research has linked music education for young children to enhanced cognitive ability, improved memory, working as a team, time management, and creative thinking. Put simply, learning music helps to create a smarter, happier, and more confident child.

What will my child experience?
