Janet Mascarenhas finds out that music actually helps kids grow better
Music teacher Ornella Menezes who teaches keyboard and voice to young children comes up with melodious facts
▪️ Why do babies and little kids love songs so much?
Because music wakes up their brains! Songs and rhymes help children listen better and remember sounds easily.
▪️ Is music only for fun, or does it help us learn too?
Both! Music makes learning language easier which is why teachers turn lessons into rhymes.
▪️ How does music help children speak better?
Learning music trains the children to notice different sounds and rhythms. This helps children pronounce words clearly and form better sentences.
▪️ Does music really improve listening skills?
Yes! “Music sharpens their listening skills and helps them differentiate between different sounds and tones.”
▪️ What does the brain have to do with music?
Everything! “Music and language. learning are connected in the brain because both use the same areas that process sound and rhythm.”
So singing and tapping also strengthen language skills.
▪️ Why is singing powerful?
Singing songs combines rhythm and repetition, which helps children learn new words, improve pronunciation, and speak more clearly.
▪️ Is learning music early really helpful?
Absolutely. Young age helps learning music as children become better at talking and communicating… and more confident too.
ON A HAPPY NOTE:
Even if you grumble about music class today, it’s quietly helping you speak better, listen sharper, and shine brighter tomorrow.
