Why Kindermusik?
 
The Kindermusik program is an International early childhood music therapy, music stimulation, and music and movement program for young children from birth through seven years of age.
 

The Kindermusik program is a gently structured flexible curriculum that allows the child to learn and develop at his or her own pace in ALL areas of development, namely emotional, social, intellectual, concentration, hand-eye co-ordination, small and large motor development, cognitive and brain development.  Each activity during class time exercise develops a certain part of the brain, and through joyful interaction and age-appropriate activities, these activities also contribute to the growth of the total child through the vehicle of music.  The program is designed especially for children birth to seven years, as scientists have discovered that a child’s brain grows to 90% of its adult capacity within the first two years of life and the last 10% to the age of seven.  It is therefore vital that a child be exposed to a music stimulation program such as Kindermusik.

 

Kindermusik is the only music stimulation program in our country that works with babies from birth.  Neurons and synapses are the building blocks of the brain.  These develop at a phenomenal rate of 50 000 per second before birth, and is not repeated at any other level of development.  The maximum amount of cells (± 100 billion) is established by the time the baby is born.  Sensory experiences teach brain cells their jobs.  A lack of such sensory experiences results in brain cells failing to make connections and eventually die off.  Unfortunately these connections must be made in infancy, hence the importance of stimulating the child shortly after birth.
