All parents want their best for their children,
but your child's extra curricular activities
are having a lasting impact you're hoping for?
Maybe is time to consider music for your child.
Music education during childhood
has been shown to have a multitude of benefits,
it sharpens student's attentiveness,
abstract reasoning and creativity.
Children who are musically trained have stronger every day
listening and memory skills.
In addition, music engages both sides of the brain
and challenges children to simultaneously concentrate
on multiple tasks.
Music and math are highly intertwined
by understanding bits, rythm and scales.
Even the youngest music makers are learning how to divide,
create fractions and recognize patterns.
Music also helps children develop coordination and motor skills,
as well as self disciplined and self esteem.
Students who participate in music programs
consistently score higher in mathematics and english
than their peers.
Students have also shown
that individuals who took music lessons as children
often show stronger neural processing of sound even after fifty years later.
Making the decision to enroll your child in a music class is a no brainer.
Parents build your child's cognitive and emotional development
and give them the gift of music.
