The aim of mainly music is to provide an environment where preschool children develop skills to enhance their preschool education, through the use of music, rhythm, rhyme, and other music related activities with the participation of a parent or primary caregiver.
When you come to mainly music, engage with your child and you’ll find they participate more and gain more educational value as a result.
Children will learn to name parts of their body as they interact with the songs and rhymes.
The sessions contain a lot of movement, helping children use and develop their gross motor skills.
Co-ordination and co-operation are two outcomes of many of the songs and rhymes.
Children will listen for instruction and look to see what others are doing – then copy. Their ability to grow skills in this area ensures readiness for school.
Marching is a contralateral movement – which involves opposite sides of the body working together. These movements stimulate both sides of a child’s brain – which helps to activate and strengthen nerve-cell pathways which link both sides of the brain.
Hand/eye/body co-ordination is very important as children grow and develop. At first a child will not be able to achieve this movement. But as they practice and gain opportunity to perfect the movement (which happens at mainly music), their skills will develop and their brain will be strengthened. This rolling action is also a contralateral movement.
In a mainly music session, percussion instruments and props are used to assist children’s learning and engagement in the songs and rhymes.
