The Importance of Music

Increasing opportunities for Music in Child Care...

According to the NCAC child care programs should provide plenty of opportunities for children to spontaneously engage in music and environments should be rich in musical and rhythmic activities.

The NCAC suggests that child care providers should mix stimulating music activities such as group time instrument playing, singing and circle games with relaxing experiences which encourage peaceful reflection and self expression such as classical music while painting and ambient music during yoga or tai chi classes.
