Positive Emotions through Music Practices- the Connection

Before diving into the world of logical thinking, let’s first understand the emotional impact of music. Music has an incredible ability to influence our emotions. When kids listen to catchy tunes or play a musical instrument, children’s brains release dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with gladness and reward. This is why music can instantly lift kids’ spirits and make your children feel happier.

an’t resist moving to the beat. Music elicits an emotional response, bringing joy, excitement, and even calmness. Encouraging kids to explore these emotions through music helps them learn to recognize and express their feelings.

Fun activities like dancing, clapping, or playing musical instruments in a group setting foster a sense of togetherness and emotional connection. This early social interaction contributes to the development of empathy and communication skills, which are essential for emotional intelligence.

Music as a Stress Reliever

One of the ways music contributes to positive emotions is by reducing stress. Playing an instrument or even just listening to soothing music can lower cortisol levels, the hormone responsible for stress. As stress levels decrease, feelings of happiness and relaxation increase.

Logical Thinking and Music: the Connection

  1. Pattern Recognition: music is full of patterns. When children learn to play a musical instrument, your kids are essentially decoding complex patterns. This practice can translate into improved pattern recognition skills, which are essential for logical thinking and problem-solving.
  2. Sing-Alongs: engage in sing-along sessions with catchy, age-appropriate songs. Encourage your toddler to sing along with you, teaching them new words and melodies.
  3. Mathematical Thinking: many aspects of music, such as rhythm and timing, are deeply rooted in mathematics. Learning to read music creates an understanding of its mathematical underpinnings and sharpens your children’s analytical skills and mathematical thinking.
  4. Creativity and Problem Solving: music encourages creativity. When kids are enrolled and involved in music programs tailored for their age, or they improvise during a performance, children are engaging in creative problem-solving. A lot of these processes are done with others which means they are also developing valuable collaborative and cooperation skills.  This process can help preschoolers to think outside the box and come up with innovative solutions in other areas of life, which they will need as professionals and in their personal interactions for the rest of their lives.
  5. Concentration and Focus: Learning a musical instrument requires, and actively develops concentration and focus. These skills can be transferred to other tasks, improving little one’s ability to concentrate on tasks, or challenges and find logical solutions.
