The ancient Greek philosopher Plato said, "Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe. Wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and joy to life and to everything."
Children's brains are developing and their brains are like sponges(海绵) that soak up anything that's going. That means children are much more ready to hear new things than adults. In other words, the more types of music children hear, the more types of music they will like as adults.
New research shows that offering an interesting environment with music is good for children's health growth and development. Children can learn, understand and think in a logical way if they study music at an early age.
Music improves the ear—and we know that children who have studied music can learn foreign language more easily and pronounce them far better.
Some children are too shy to take part in activities with others. However, they usually feel relaxed when they join in a music activity.
Whether they are listening to music, singing along with a song, playing an instrument or dancing to music, they seem totally absorbed in music.
