The Magic of Music (2 hours) – Certificate issued on completion
Exploring the importance of Music in Early Childhood
We’ve all been told at some point in our career in education and care that children don’t really care if we can hold a tune! Do you sing, dance and enjoy music with the children in your care or do you let the I-pad do all the work? Join us in this 2-hour session as we revisit the magic of music and how important it is in early childhood.
‘Since there is no negative consequence to the idea to connect children with music, it is an activity that educators and parents
can enjoy with children as often as possible.’
Learning Outcomes:
- Discover the developmental benefits of music for children
- Learn some strategies for embedding music into your curriculum
- Gain confidence singing, dancing and enjoying music so you don’t rely on I-pads and CD players
