Music for your infants/toddlers

 Brain development-
Music is a great way to teach your infant/toddler listening skills. This is a very important skills that your child needs in  school.Music also teachers infants/toddlers to follow directions. You should play the same songs all the time until your infant decides which song  is her favorite. Play music that has clapping in it. Your child should have learn how to clap since he was seven months now at 14 months he is an expert  at clapping.At 14 months your infant will listen to music that has clapping and will clap when the song gets to that part. Your infant has learned how to follow directions when listening to music.You should also begin to give your infant directions -for example Tom let's put this toy in the box,now let us take it out of the box.  Then you will want the  baby to help you put a soiled diaper in the garbage. As you practice this eventually you can  give him one direction activity and he will be able to do it.
You should introduce your baby to different types of music. As you play music for your baby watch her change her body movements based on the  beat of the music.
We have been playing music for my grand son since he got home from the hospital . Yesterday he was listening to a song and a line said"everybody clap and you hear them clapping". I observed him clapping.There are three places that clapping occurs . I observed him listening for the direction and as the song said every body clap. He started clapping with a big smile on his face.
Young children are  wired to learn but they must be given the experiences that will help them connect the wires in the brain.
