How listening to music can help the brains of babies and young children, by vanessalobue
Research shows music reduces the amount of time infants cry.I’m married to a musician, which means that our house is typically filled with some type of music for a lot of the day. Although I’m an avid music listener, I’m not generally a participant when it comes to playing it, or even singing it . That is, until I had children. Like their dad, my 3-year-old and 6-year-old boys love music, and always have.
The take-home message here is children tend to love music, and it might even have a calming effect on infants. Further musical training does seem to have a variety of benefits that go beyond the domain of music itself, with gains spilling over into both language and math achievement. So perhaps the question we should be asking isn’t why music, but why not music?
