Again!! Again!! children learn through repetition. Each time a child is exposed to a new object or experience, new neural connections are made in their brain. Through repetition, these connections are strengthened and learning occurs. Every Kindermusik curriculum is designed to repeat certain activities-in part because of this important connection between repetition and learning, but also because repetition of activities helps to create the Kindermusik classroom community. Ritual and repetition at home are important components of a predictable and nurturing home life as well.
Tip: So go ahead, sing that song or read that book AGAIN! For the hundredth time. Take satisfaction in know that you are doing your child's brain a world of good!
During movement activities, children learn to organize the available space in relation to themselves and in relationship to objects and other individuals...this is how they develop body control, spatial awareness, and confidence in the power and ability of their own bodies.
Tip: Turn on some dancing music and dance around the room together. Add a prop, like a scarf, a ball, or a hoop for more movement and body control fun and learning.
