At one point or another, we have all experienced the connection and bonding that can arise when making music or dancing with another person or in a group. Maybe it was singing in a choir or singing as a family in the car. Maybe it was dancing the “Electric Slide” at a wedding, chanting a sports anthem in a stadium, or making music in your Music Together class. Learn a little more about the “why” behind the magic of musical connection. (Turns out, science has something to say about it!) https://www.musictogether.com/parents/music-brings-us-together?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=01082024

Did you know? Singing familiar songs is also incredibly beneficial for elders with any type of memory loss. Neuroscience researchers and music therapists have long studied the role that music plays in the health and aging experiences of seniors suffering from memory and thought-processing issues, particularly associated with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia.

There’s more than the usual hustle-bustle this time of year, and your littles could feel overwhelmed or lost in the shuffle. Make time for quiet moments to listen to them, and provide any reassurance they might need!

Singing increases the production of dopamine and serotonin, and puts many of our brain regions to work, strengthening our neural pathways. For young children, whose brain architecture is still forming, music-making can be even more impactful, as positive early experiences create strong neural pathways—and a strong foundation for all future learning.

Research suggests that active music-making with others supports many parts of socio-emotional development, including self-regulation, self-confidence, leadership skills, social skills, and more. How cool is that?

The cornerstone of the Music Together® program is our Mixed-Age music class, for children from birth through age 5.
