Musical Parenting Tip:  Play with your Kindermusik Home CD and Online Resources to foster deep emotional connections.
Why?
  • Your child’s brain is profoundly influenced by her first
    love relationship – YOU!
  • Music touches a person’s emotions in a unique and lasting way (without words or visuals)
  • A secure attachment bond helps baby to feel safe, develop
    meaningful connections with others, deal with stress, explore his world,
    balance emotions, create positive memories, and positive expectations of
    relationships.
  • Baby learns best in the context of an environment where he
    feels safe, secure, and emotionally connected.

How?
  • Sing the songs from class together at home and in the car. You will see your child engage more in the classroom because the songs are familiar and they know what to expect and the environment feels safe.  
  • Take one song and turn it into a ritual singing it at the same time and way each day. Your child will come to expect it and it will provide an emotional anchor that will help them deal with change when it does happen.
  • Engage your child in a game of Making
    Faces    ! Be sure to read the information in the upper-right blue box, about
    emotions and vocabulary.
  • Rather play a movement game? 
    Get ideas from ‘Look
    What I Can Do!    ’
  • Need a bedtime story? 
    Read your Kindermusik e-book “Watch
    Me!    ”
