It’s music appreciation week in The Children’s House! Introducing music at a young age has such important life-long benefits such as brain stimulation, social development, boosting self-esteem and creativity – and children love it!! This week we’re going to look at various aspects such as the different groups of musical instruments (string, woodwind, brass, percussion), how music is written and read, making our own musical instruments, and discussing why music sounds so nice to our ears.

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Twinkle twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky,
Twinkle twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are!
