I really enjoy the holiday season! Although it's just the beginning of November, I'm so excited to hear some local radio stations are already playing Christmas music. Just love this time of year, because music is such an important part. And sharing music with our children is very important too.
During the holidays, it's common to attend our child's concerts at church or school. But when the season ends, how do we keep the music playing?
According to a 2016 study by the University of Southern California's Brain and Creativity Institute, musical experiences in childhood can actually accelerate brain development, particularly in the areas of language acquisition and reading skills.
Psalm 104:33 says, "I will sing to the Lord as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being."
Whether it's listening to music on your phone, singing in the choir; or playing an instrument, music can bring value to a child's body, mind and spirit. Find your rhythm and enjoy music all year through.
