The Northwestern North American University conducted a study that found that children who have contact from an early age with music develop more easily to learn to read and write.

Music helps in the learning of children.

Music is a fundamental element in this first stage of the educational system.

There are laws in some countries that dictate that children learn art as basic material of Basic Education, because it favors, develops, and sensitizes the integration among children.

And it's not only at school that music is important!

Inside the house, it is up to the parents to stimulate the child to learn a musical instrument, or even to insert different songs into the family environment on a day-to-day basis. Introduce the children with elements that serve as a stimulus in that area for the children.
What effects does music cause in children's brains?

Music is practically indispensable in our lives. We are continually surrounded by melodies and songs. Music is a universal means of expression that has many positive effects on human beings, especially during its early years. Since we are born, it affects our brain and, during the first steps in life, helps our cognitive, social, motor, emotional and language development.

Positive effects of music on children's brains.

Music is extremely important for the intellectual growth of the child, since it generates a great amount of neuronal activity. It is the human stimulus that activates most parts of the brain. Exposure from newborns to music, especially classical music, and their musical development as they grow, whether singing, dancing or playing an instrument, have the following positive effects on children:

Increase in memory, attention and concentration

By attending to the melody and lyrics of the songs, children learn to remember and reproduce what they hear while having fun singing. It is an activity that they love and that at the same time reinforces all these characteristics.

Improvement of expression fluency

Both spoken and corporal, this develops when singing and dancing. Singing the lyrics of a song is easy when you know its rhythm, so the child can repeat complex sentences that he would not otherwise use. Dancing gives him the ability to express himself with the body and playing an instrument adds a new form of communication.

Greater ease for problem solving

The perception of rhythmic patterns increases the reasoning of the child to find more complex solutions to mathematical problems and logic. If you also add music education, the effect increases: understand the duration of the notes in an active score directly the area of ​​the brain related to mathematical operations.

This led me to stimulate much more to the music, to my 3-year-old daughter, the effects on the little ones of the house, and on the adult, are incredible.
