Music 2 Little Ears ™ Sound Education for children 5 and under, where a rich sensory environment is music to little ears…
As far back as the first comforting lullabies that loving Mothers have sung to their babes, we know music has a profound effect on our children. Scientists have proven: music in early childhood enhances cognitive, language, social and emotional development. Despite the findings of science, the sheer enjoyment of music is obvious to anyone who observes children singing and dancing. Music 2 Little Ears is a committed reliable resource of enrichment and arts integration for pre-schools.
Music 2 Little Ears Creative Director Heidi Martin has combined a unique collection of songs and stories. We’ve kept in mind the varying approaches i.e. Maria Montessori, Rudolf Steiner, Reggio Emelia to name a few; that are at the top of the class in teaching little people. We aim to uphold the value of arts integration with music being the support to your weekly themes and daily lesson plans. Expect our patience, respectful communication and understanding for children and teachers from all religious and cultural backgrounds in each class. We provide Instruments, music and all the enthusiasm! We encourage children to freely express themselves in movement, singing, percussion instruments, puppets and scarves. Our success is engaging children from infants to 5 years of age to participate in their own joyous experience of the music. With an extensive repertoire of songs teaching colors, shapes, numbers, alphabet, language pronunciation, community social behavior, body parts and emotions. When Children sing and dance to music from different genres, countries and eras; they cultivate skills in the elements of general music and gain an appreciation for various cultures.
Fostering confidence in each child, which can be witnessed in the end of the fourteen (14) week session with a performance at your institution. This is an awesome experience for parents, children and teachers alike.
