Research on the importance of developing a child during the first five years of life are beginning to have scientific evidence to reinforce what we have all suspected: Music does make a difference!

We already accept that:

* music shapes attitudes towards a lifetime of appreciation of the arts

* music is SO MUCH FUN!

* music is a precursor of future formal music instruction by providing experiences in singing, playing instruments, movement and listening

* music is a link to understanding humans in context of our culture

But now we are also beginning to recognise that:

* music established patterns of brain development unknown to us before

* music is crucial to language developments

* music through movement is a vital connection to emergent literacy

* music provides tools essential for problem solving

* music fosters emotional bonding and self esteem
