Does Music From Different Cultures Help Your Kids Learn?
So, If remembering words over a long period of time could be considered education, then I guess music is an amazing tool. What about music from other cultures and different languages. Why not give a listed to a little greek radio ( ελληνικό ραδιόφωνο ) and find out for yourself. I suspect it will work pretty well, and you may even educate your self in some Greek language speaking skills. I know I learned a few french words from a certain disco song that Patti Labelle made famous a few years ago. You can get greek online radio ( ελληνικό online ραδιόφωνο ) right in your web browser these days. All you need is a computer and the internet.
When’s A Good Time To Start Your Kids On Music Lessons?
Once they turn at least five years of age, and have the physical control to start learning an instrument, then I think they should start. It depends on the instrument to some degree as well. Our kids had a piano instructor, that wouldn't start teaching piano to children until they were at least seven years old. She thought that prior to that, their fingers simply weren't big enough to play all the keys. Speaking of pianos, you may be wondering what brand to get for your kids. Well, it doesn't have to be the best of the best, like James Bond's brand of watches. We had just an old piano that my father bought years ago. I think he traded in his De Ville Co-Axial replica on it when he was younger. Not a bad decision in hindsight, considering all the use we've gotten out of the piano. Friends of ours also bought just a regular Yamaha electric piano when their kids started playing.
Personally I'm glad to have had all the music lessons I did as a kid. And I never had to sell my replica Omega for a pair of drumsticks to get started.
Music And The Health Of Your Kids
I know my life as been considerably enhanced because of the gift of music that I was given by my parents. My father was the director of a drum corp, which was always a busy activity that brought countless musicians, artists, and arrangers through our home for many years. Myself and all my brothers greatly benefited from that musical influence, and even in our later years continued to fall back on our musical skills to enhance and contribute to our daily lives. Sure you can get healthy in other ways by buying sports nutrition supplements like Maximuscle Promax Diet and PhD Pharma Blend that when used judiciously will contribute to your healthy well being. But, I believe that diversity is key to overall health.
The Importance Of Kids Music
Growing up as a child surrounded by music, I can adamantly state that I’m a very different person today because of that music. I was the son of a drummer, the son of a drum corp director, the son of an aspiring piano player, the son of an aspiring trumpeter, and the son of a [...]
