QUESTION IN A LINK

What is your answer so far or What have you done so far as an attempt to solve this question?
A child who plays the keyboard e.g., piano, organ etc. has a greater experience because of the auditory and physical presentation.
Music is called the universal language because it leaves children more alert.
Music is very important to a child’s development especially in the first 3 years researchers suggest.
Grace C Nash noted in American music education has said for over 20years that music and movement are the first languages of childhood that are used before traditional languages provides links to communication.
Daily music experiences in child care can make many valuable connections to our children’s languages capabilities, memory, physical activities, creative thinking, emotional stability, discipline and emerging academic success.
When playing different kinds of music such as different beats, rhythm or loudness the children will respond by how the music makes them feel like whether that may be quiet, loud/bouncy or moving slowly dancing..
While we are listening to music we are helping to relieve stress and enjoy the calmness that is brings to us.
Toddlers often join in singing/dancing with you or others they often make their own music/song while they play.
Young children who miss out on this interaction can sometimes be often less expressive and could also delay their speech also they may be shy when communicating with others.
As with art materials, pre-schoolers use musical instruments (including their own voices) to express feelings and ideas.
Your child will enjoy singing just for the sake of singing. They’ll love songs that have repetition and simple melodies. They can make up their own words to familiar songs, and words often come from the events that have taken place in their lives or from the people around them.
Your pre-schooler will usually be able to recognise and name favourite sings, and sing parts of them fairly accurately. You’ll quickly come to learn his favourite nursery rhymes of by heart. Singing along also helps children understand the difference between fast and slow, long and short, loud and soft.
Pre-schooler’s might also enjoy group singing games and finger plays such as – open shut them, where is thumbkin or incy wincy spider.
All children can enjoy music whether they have a disability or not a lot of children who do have a disability seem to enjoy music and develop from it.
