Our purpose is simple. We're here to develop young minds and change the world. One child at a time.
Children love music. Music is one of the best methods for learning in early childhood development. Kindermusik® is more than just a music class. Kindermusik®'s curricula is steeped in educational theory and designed to improve a child’s brain development. And for parents, it’s a fun and meaningful activity to do with your children!
Music Matters
Psychologists, neuroscientists, and experts in early childhood development have demonstrated that music does more for children than bring them joy; it helps their brain cells make the connections needed for virtually every kind of intelligence. The following research is the core of Kindermusik®’s curricula.
When young children are consistently engaged by music in an age-appropriate, socially-safe environment, they benefit at multiple domains of development:
Creative
Nurturing children’s creativity and challenging them to come up with new and expressive ways of doing things helps them to become better problem-solvers and more innovative thinkers later in life.
Physical
By moving and dancing to music and playing simple instruments, children improve their gross and fine motor skills.
Musical
Our activities are designed to develop vocal skills, foster music appreciation, and build a foundation for continued formal music instruction in life.
Language And Literacy
They gain the phonological processing, spoken language, and comprehension skills that are the foundation of reading.
Social/Emotional
They develop social and emotional skills that are essential for school readiness—like the ability to regulate their responses and relate to others in complex ways.
Cognitive
Our activities encourage problem solving, symbolic thinking, reasoning, and more—all in a musically engaging and developmentally appropriate way.
Kindermusik® takes the latest in child development and neuroscience research and translates our understanding of
those findings to the classroom.
Students who received Kindermusik® instruction showed significantly larger gains (32%
more improvement) on the Phonological Awareness Test ("PALS™") than did students
who did not receive Kindermusik® instruction. These results indicate that the Kindermusik®
program successfully boosts preschoolers’ language and literacy skills.
