Baby music classes are increasingly popular, with the choice greater than ever, but parents often ask if baby music classes are worth it?

Research has found that infants who took part in music classes for babies and toddlers were not only more musically aware, but that they also had better-developed gestures and social skills just after the classes.   Another study highlighted potential benefits for a child’s parents by getting to know other parents. 

“The psychological benefits of such classes/groups to both parents and children are significant.  They act as a form of crucial peer support with the added benefit of the music focus which is important for mental wellbeing.  As we know, the mental health of the parents impacts the mental health and development of the child”  Monkey Music Parent and Parent-Infant Psychotherapist

The repetition of simple songs and nursery rhymes helps to reinforce words and phrases for your baby and if your little one attends regular baby music classes you will soon find that they start to recognise certain songs and rhymes as firm favourites.

In addition to all these benefits, taking your baby to a weekly music class will ensure you are sharing precious time together away from all of life’s other distractions while reinforcing the bond between you and your child and allowing them to explore a range of sounds and senses in a magical musical environment.
