Musical Parenting tip: Listen to different types of music, with your Toddler
Why?
- “Different forms and styles are used for specific effects based on the way the rhythm, tempo, melody, and effect have been developed by the composer… Accelerated learning techniques use a variety of music with contrasting elements and effects to create a comprehensive, multifaceted learning experience.” – Rhythms of Learning, Chris Brewer & Don Campbell
- 25% of classes are auditory learners – is your child one of them?
- Long & short sounds (legato & staccato) are opposite styles of articulation that can be experienced through a variety of modes, heightening children's awareness of this element of music.
How?
- Explore a variety of sounds & music with your child.
- Take time to read aloud to your child each day.
- Encourage your child to teach others how to do things. Expressing instructions orally is usually a task auditory learners excel at.
- Use a device to record your child’s voice and invite them to play these clips back.
